What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
My ex filed for divorce in May of 2007. We were married 9 years. She never worked and I have much property from before our marriage which was never co-mingled.
My attorney filed for a bifurcation and the judge denied it. I want to marry my current girlfriend. How can I get the judge to bifurcate this marriage? Is wanting to remarry, a reason?
Also, her attorney is saying she will do anything in her power to stop the bifurcation. A divorce in California should take 6 months and I do not understand how my hands are being tied from moving on with my life. What reason would the judge have for not bifurcating this marriage?
Thank you.
