What is the name of your state? NY
My friend is going through a divorce battle. They did not legally separate but he moved out. He and his lawyer have been trying to work out a divorce agreement with his wife and after to revisions to the agreement she she verbally agreed to the most recent one but keeps dragging her feet on coming in to actually sign the papers. Its been 2 months since she verbally agreed . She never hired a lawyer for herself. They have no children together but she has 3 children from other fathers.
Since he moved out at the end of last year he has kept his family medical plan with his employer active as a courtesy but she is taking advantage of things by not signing. Can he legally remove her and the kids from his medical plan, basically switch to single plan while they are still officially married? Every week she drags her feet it cost him and extra $100 a week to keep the family plan and he wants to stop the bleeding. What are the legal ramifications of him cutting off her and her children from the medical before the divorce is finalized? His lawyer has not been clear on that.
Thanks in advance,
Adam
