What is the name of your state? NY
STBX and I are trying to come up with fair settlement agreement. He was removed from the home one year ago due to a domestic violence issue and a stay away order of protection. He has not paid one cent towards the mortgage (which is in his name only) or household expenses since that date. I have paid over $30,000 in mortgage payments alone since he was removed last year. Is it possible for me to get that ENTIRE amount credited to me in the equity split? Also he used marital funds as well as transferred martial property to pay off his pre-marital child support debt ($30,000). Would I be entitled to half this amount credited to me as well ($15,000)? Thanks for your advice.
