Can I get re-married in Georgia after 30 days from filing for divorce in Alabama?

Answered by attorney Willie Stephen Graves (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Graves Law Firm
No. The waiting period for getting remarried runs from the day your Alabama divorce is FINAL, i.e. the day the judge signs the final divorce decree, not the day you file for divorce.

Will the state give his ex-wife half of the part time pension or only the pension that is named on the QDRO, which is his current full time job?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)

Your fact statement is too confusing to be certain what the issue is. But, as a rule all property issues decided in a divorce case are final and permanent, meaning decisions cannot be changed later. The state cannot do anything other than what a court order requires, even if you mean that the "state" is also the employer or the retirement plan administrator. A QDRO only applies to one single, specified retirement plan that existed at the time of divorce.

Can DES do a DNA test without my knowledge or consent?

William R. Pelger
Answered by attorney William R. Pelger
Divorce lawyer at Pelger Law
That's a complicated situation. You would have to file support enforcement proceedings against someone you have now remarried and share a home with? You really need to go to the Family Division, see a counselor and look at the file to learn what is actually going on. Or, hire a lawyer to do it for you. As far as the testing, the Family Division can do mouth swabs on a reputed father if paternity is an issue, but the story sounds suspicious to me. Normally, DNA testing is difficult to get retroactively, is generally done only by court order, and is usually initiated by one of the parties, not the Family Division.
