Trying to divorce husband that is in prison for 4 years

Matthew Kyle Simcox
Answered by attorney Matthew Kyle Simcox (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Simcox Law Firm, P.L.L.C.
I'm not sure that I have enough information to fully answer your question, but if he filed an answer with the court, then he has to have notice of the hearing date.  If he did not file an answer, then I would suggest you just schedule a time to prove up the divorce (I do not know Harris County procedures for this) and be done with him.  His telling you on the phone that he wants to contest the divorce is immaterial if he has not filed anything with the Court.  He is in default so long as he was properly served. I would suggest getting in touch with an attorney in your area if your husband answered the lawsuit because you do not want your husband holding the rest of your life hostage - at least until he gets out of prison. Good luck.

My husband of 59 years now wants a divorce and said I could not get half of his pension. What am I entitled to?

Answered by attorney Robert Jensen 'Bob' Matlock (Unclaimed Profile)

Any part of the pension earned prior to the marriage is the party's separate property and must be awarded to that party. The portion earned during the marriage is community property and can be divided in the divorce. Any other property acquired during the marriage is presumed to be community property; however, Texas marital property is complex and I suggest you hire a lawyer.
