Can I legally leave with my children until a divorce can be filed?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jill K. Whitbeck (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Jill K. Whitbeck
In Nevada, you do NOT need to be living separate to get a divorce. Leaving your child behind can be deemed abandonment, and even if not, it still creates a status quo where dad has custody which could be a big problem for you. He also cannot have you arrested for kidnapping. Unless there are custody orders, you cannot be deemed to have kidnapped your own child. You can only be deemed a flight risk if you have ever indicated that you would flee the jurisdiction (or have done so). You really need to go see an attorney in your jurisdiction immediately. It sounds as if your husband is threatening you with a number of false legal theories, and you may be in a position where a protective order is appropriate. You need to know how the laws in your state work, and what your rights and obligations really are, and the only way to get good information is to sit down with a quality, experiences attorney and go over it based on your particular circumstances.

What could be the reason for a divorce to be pending for 5 years? What should I do if I re-file but I do not know my spouse's whereabout?

You have to find out if the court dismissed it if it did go to court and try to get it back on calendar. Easier to finish it up than have to find your spouse so you can reserve the paperwork. You may need help getting through the procedure
