During my previous marriage my brothers' wife sold my wife and I a life insurance policy. I was away from home working at the time so my then wife handled the paperwork. I did not know it at the time but she listed only herself as the policy owner. We are now divorced and at the divorce hearing in South Carolina the judge told her to cancel the policy since at the time of the divorce the policy held no value and was considered a marital asset. She did not cancel the policy. I now live in California and she lives in West Virginia. I was going to purchase a new policy when the insurance salesman asked me what was wrong with the current policy. It was then that I learned that my ex-wife did not cancel the policy. We have two teenage children and she claims that this is why she is keeping the policy until they are 21. Can she continue to have this policy against my wishes? Do I not have any rights when it comes to who may or may not have a policy on my life? Can I sue the insurance company and force them to cancel the policy? We are currently in court for support modification and she is asking that I sign away any dispute over the policy until the children are 21. I want to settle with her but I do not want her to have this policy. Can I target the insurance company after I settle with her?
