What is the name of your state? California
Hello,
I'm contemplating filing for divorce in the imminent future. While California is a no-fault jurisdiction, is my understanding correct that the courts here take into consideration economic fault during the property division/spousal support phase of the proceedings?
My salary is approximately 20% higher than his, and he is threatening to sue me for spousal support. Yet, over the past two years, my husband has withdrawn more than $20,000 from our savings and on numerous occasions has refused to deposit his paychecks to our joint accounts with no explanation/justification whatsoever.
Considering my situation, can I reasonably expect the courts here to deny his claim for spousal support? Your thoughts/observations would be much appreciated.What is the name of your state?
