From Florida,

Hello....how are you?

I have some questions and I might ask a few of them now.
I dunno...I'm pretty relaxed right now. Maybe I better not get too excited!:D

Forgive me. This forum is quite different than I expected. It will take a few more tries I suppose. Are you always so negative?

Please ask your questions and quit playing silly games.. This is not a chat site, it's a legal one.

It'll take a few more tries to what? Type? You've shown you can register, you can log in, you can start a message. Now what?

Quit wasting our time. Either type it out or delete this stupid thread. :rolleyes:

What's so different? Ask a question. If you can type nonsense, you can type a question.

Geeez, I'm not playing silly games. I needed a few posts to get the feel of the site.
Man...talk about sensitive people.
I will apolgize again.

Now...

My fiance got divorced about 5 years ago. The divorce decree states that she is entitled to half of the stock she and her ex had. The stock has not yet had an IPO. She hasn't viewed the stock herself. She has trusted her ex. She is waiting for the stock to go public. My question...Is the divorce decree enough to ensure she gets her share when she chooses the time to do so?
This is not a self serving question. I am finacially secure myself. I just don't want her to get ripped off. What do you think?

I think you should have your fiance create an account and start asking her own questions. You don't seem to play well with others.

What do you think?
I think you're very strange.
The site probably feeeeels like your mouse!
Or, if you're weirder than I think, it feeeeeels like your monitor as your press yourself against it.
Or, if you're using a laptop, it feeeeeels like your mousepad and a box sitting on your lap.
Or, if it's warm in the room where you are, it feeeeeeels warm. Likewise, if it's cold where you are, it feeeeeels cold!
:rolleyes:

"Feelings... Whooooa Feelings." I'll let Eme look up the real words for that song. I don't feel like it.

here is the thing: Your fiance is entitled to half of the stock she and her ex had at the time of the divorce -- not any stock that has yet to produce or the value when it goes public.

I have to disagree with that Ohiogal.

It depends on how the order was worded.

It could have been worded that she was entitled to half of the value of the stock at the time of the divorce.

Or it could have been worded that she was entitled to half of the stock itself. Which would mean that the stock is her property, not a dollar value.

Or it could have actually been worded that she was entitled to half of the value of the stock once it goes public.

Or it could be worded in an entirely different manner.

However, if it was worded that she was entitled to half of the stock itself, then its ownership should have been transferred to her. It should not have been left in her ex-husband's name. She needs to see an attorney about getting that done ASAP.

Actually I agree with you and it was what I meant though not what I said. If she is holding on to it in hopes of profiting she may find herself losing out.
