Can I still file for divorce if he is still in my home?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Yes, you can file for divorce if you and your husband still share the same residence, although I would recommend that at least one of you consider relocating. If he is violent, be sure to call the authorities and ask for a protective order, which will keep him out of your home. Whenever you are dealing with a spouse who has a drug or alcohol problem, you're going to face unique challenges.

Could I get a divorce if I’m married in Mexico and live in the United States?

Bradley Roger Gammell
Answered by attorney Bradley Roger Gammell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Gammell & Associates
Yes.   Jurisdiction to grant a divorce is based on your domicile at the time you file.   Provided you have lived in Texas for 6 months and in the county in which you file for 90 days--at the time you file your petition for divorce--you can get divorced in Texas.

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.
