My wife that I am getting divorced from cancel my ins. And truck got stolen what for I do

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
Most divorce courts in Texas have issued standing orders that prohibit a spouse from cancelling insurance policies during the pendency of the divorce case.  If the court in which your divorce is pending has done so, you may be able to file a motion for contempt or a motion to enforce the standing orders.  With a motion for contempt, your wife can be fined or jailed for violating the court order.  With a motion to enforce, you may be able to persuade the court to give you from your community property a sum of money equal to the value of your truck when it was stolen to allow you to replace the truck.  I would argue that should be awarded to you before any other division of your community property as part of a just and right division because, but for your wife cancelling the policy, there would have been insurance proceeds to help you replace the stolen truck.

If my wife lives in one state and I live in another state and we were married in a different state, how would we be able to get a divorce?

Answered by attorney Brent R. Chipman
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Brent R. Chipman
If there are children involved, the divorce action should be filed where the children reside. If there are no minor children, either party can file for a divorce in a state where they meet the residency requirements, or they can file in the state where the spouse meets residency requirements. If you cannot agree on where the divorce should be filed, the court would consider whether either spouse has lived in the other state during the marriage, or where the acts giving rise to the divorce took place.

Generally you can go get the motorcycle and the truck because they are legally yours. sell them and recoup your money as much as possible. However FOLLOW YOUR ORIGINAL DIVORCE JUDGMENT. If he gets the vehicles in the judgment you must first go to the court to get the judgment amended.
