What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I am currently deployed overseas in the military and just got served divorce papers from my wife. All of my paycheck currently goes to a joint account that she uses to pay for everything. How much am I legally required to give her each month until the divorce is settled? I told her I was going to start taking 40% of my paycheck each month so I could hire an attorney and start saving up to get a place of my own when I got back but she told me her lawyer said I couldn't take any money without her consent or I would get into legal trouble.
