Cindy S. Vova
Answered by attorney Cindy S. Vova
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Cindy S. Vova, P.A.
Dear Anonymous:    You are still legally married.  Under Florida law, which will likely apply, the date of filing the petition for dissolution of marriage  is the starting point for determining marital and non-marital assets and liabilities.  In a nutshell, this means that the assets and liabilities both your spouse and you acquired after separation could still be considered for the purposes of determining the marital  estate.      So, you should file  for divorce now, because this will keep goin gforward without that legal declaration that you are divorced.   Best of luck, Cindy S. Vova Law Offices of Cindy S. Vova, P.A. Broward/Boca Raton 954-316-3496/561-962-2795

Would home have to be sold and split in a divorce if purchased with gifted money from a parents death?

Robert Lawrence Bogen
Answered by attorney Robert Lawrence Bogen (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Offices of Robert L. Bogen, P.A.
If the home was purchased during the marrriage, it is a marital asset subject to equitable distribution even if it is titled in only one spouse's name.  However, there are exceptions. One exception is if the home was purchased with monies gifted to you by your mother.  But if those monies were commingled in a marital bank account, and are not able to be adequately traced to the purchase of the home, the exception may not apply.  The answer to your question depends upon a fact-intensive analysis of the totality of the circumstances, including but not limited to the amount of money gifted to you, where the money went, when the house was purchased, the purchase price of the home, whether there was a mortgage being paid with marital funds, the appreciation of the value of the home during the marriage, etc. Even if it is determined that all or part of the home is a marital asset, that does not necessarily mean that it would have to be sold and the proceeds split 50/50.  The court would consider all the equitable circumstances and make a determination as to what should be done with the house, and how it should be split up (if at all).

What can I legally do if we are now divorced and now he is threatening me that he will press charges on our second mortgage?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
I would have to see the details, however the existence of the second mortgage should of been noted in your divorce and it would appear that he is long past the statute of limitations. I would suggest you confer with an attorney.
