Does the divorce decree supercede a prior court order for visitation?

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
It could mean that the prior agreement, the every Tuesday night and every other weekend, still stands, the judgment of divorce sounds like it was not very specific.  If you can discuss some other visitation and agree upon it, then have him sign something that says this is the new agreed upon visitation.

Do I have to file for divorce in NJ if I just moved to DE September 23, 2014?

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You have to look at the residency requirements for Delaware.  In New jersey - to fle for divorce in NJ you have to live here for a year.  If it is similar in Delaware, you can wait until you've been there a year and then file in Delaware.

Hello,i have been married for 9 months but on some of our issues my husband kick me out of house with my children , what are my right for alimony.

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question. Given the short term of your marriage alimony is not really an option for you. As to the assets you may be entitled to a percentage of the marital assets you and your husband acquired during the marriage. However since you have not lived in NJ for a full year and are now back in Canada you do not have jurisdiction to file for divorce in NJ unless your Husband has resided in NJ for a year or longer. You would benefit from scheduling a video or phone consult with a family law attorney to discuss your options.
