What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
Hello, my ex filed for divorce based on common law marriage, beginning in 1994, which is before GA stopped recognizing common law marriage. Anyhow, we were never married, but we did file taxes as married. It was known between us, but now she is just wanting money. Our son lives with her and our daughter lives with me.
I believe she had Medicaid in 1996 when our last child was born. How can I get a copy of this application where she would have claimed to be single?
Also, any other suggestions on how to prove there was no marriage would be appreciated. To give a short background:
She left me and moved directly in with another man whom she had been seeing for a while we were together. She filed a protective order on me a couple weeks later. I was forced to leave my house for a month, while still paying all of the bills, plus hotel room costs, plus the payment on my car that she was driving. Anyhow, we went to court and the judge dismissed the order, so I got to go back home and she voluntarily left and moved back in with the other man. Then, she filed for a Divorce. I responded that there wasn't a marriage. Now we have gone through mediation, the discovery, and now I'm assuming any day I'll get notice we are going to court. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
