What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Arizona
My husband is preparing to divorce me in favor of another woman. We have been married for close to seven years under a covenant marriage. We have a two year old child and a six month old child. his goal is to pretty much kick me out with my car, the kids, and a very small amount of child support. He has been the primary wage earner throughout, and I have not worked since the kids were born.
I want to fight to have sufficient means to finish my engineering degree (two or three semesters) so I can properly support myself and the kids. I plan to fight the divorce until he offers me a properly equal split of our assets. We still live in the same house and I have comitted neither adultery, a felony, nor any kind of violence. I am expecting him to attempt to file on grounds of emotional abuse. My question then, is if the definition of emotional abuse can be stretched so far as to include such things as not paying suffient attention to a spouse?
Secondly, while I was pregnant with our second child, my husband pressed me to have my tubes tied. I did so, unaware at the time of his involment with another woman and his intentions to divorce me. Might I have a resonable case to sue over this, seperate from the divorce?
