Situation: Wife will do anything to not let husband have divorce and will try to delay divorce and property settlement indefinitely for revenge. She has nothing better to do and won't settle....She will want to go to court as far in the future as possible, convinced by her attorneys she will come out ahead this way. She has a number of bogus charges that she can't prove...and needs to be stopped. Help.....
Questions:
1. Is there any way a spouse can prevent a divorce, if one has filed a legal separation and waited the 6-month period in Louisiana? What if the divorce is contested (i.e. the spouse's attorney has even contested the other party has been living apart for 6 months and other bogus charges)?
2. What can the husband do to protect himself from not having the divorce become final as soon as possible? What if the wife is out of the country on the 6-month separation date as an avoidance ploy? How to get around this?
3. Can the divorce become final even though community property and alimony are not decided?
4. Is there a limit to the amount of time a husband must pay temporary alimony until a court date is set for community property and permanent alimony to be decided....or could this go on for years by motions and delays? How can he protect himself and get this decided ASAP?
