Proof of Lying - how do I use it?

Re: Divorce Case in Florida, where after >$40k in attorney fees, I was financially forced to go Pro Se

My wife stated in her deposition that she does not own any real estate. When specifically asked about an apartment in Moscow, Russia, she stated that she does NOT own it and has never had interest in the apartment.

I just received a copy of the deed from the Russian Federation department of real estate showing my wife as the sole owner of the apartment in Moscow since March 2011. The value of the apartment is around $500k.

How do I use this information to my advantage? Do I file a motion? What motion do I file?

Please help.

As you have been told previously, property that she inherited has no bearing on your matter.

Sure, it does not seem to be on a material matter and the "evidence" the OP got isn't going to be admissible, but LIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

US Courts have NO jurisdiction over property in Moscow.

Although I have no claim on the property, the fact that she owns real estate worth around $500k, and the fact that she told me that her inheritance is considerably more than what she actually transferred over from Russia; now that I can prove she lied about one thing, it will imply that she lied about other facts. Also, in Florida (from what my prior attorney explained, and based on what I have read) the party that has the higher "ability to pay" usually winds up covering the legal fees of the other party.

I am not looking to get possession of the property, but I am trying to establish a pattern of lying, and the fact that she owns property and probably has many other assets that I know about but cannot prove (and she has denied, under oath, possessing such assets), she has the better "ability to pay" both for my attorney and suit fees, and for palimony.

So, in other words, you are trying to figure out a way to get a piece of her inheritance by using it to pay for your attorney and costs and for palimony.

It's not marital property, so it can't be used in the way you want to use it.

You don't have an attorney to charge you fees. (remember?)

And why do you think you deserve palimony? Is it because she has more money than you? Because that is NOT the standard for PALIMONY. And I do not believe Florida recognizes palimony. CA was one of the FEW states that does.

You should have posted this in your original thread.

OP- why are you referring to Palimony when you refer to your STBX as your "wife?" I'm quite confused.

Gotta tell you - Family Court doesn't get all that upset when folks lie about money. Perhaps you'd get more of a reaction if it related to child support but for anything else? Frankly, they are too overwhelmed to care.

Not fair, not just, but it is what it is.
