My question involves a marriage in the state of: Nevada, & Colorado
I was briefly married at 23 when I got pregnant. Miscarried then separated. We met with lawyer and drew up simple divorce papers and ex was suppose to file them. Fast forward to 24 year marriage, two kids, now divorced for three years. I am a flight attendant who made $17,000 last year. Ex pilot making well over $250,000. I get 3,000 a month in spousal support. I did not use a lawyer during the divorce, I was abused and weak and grateful to get out. Ex showed up in court with lawyer and changed many things from our original decree, and keeps suing me for things he put in final decree. He wanted $6,000, I paid him $1500. He legally stole $30,000 from 401K and hid assets. I got very little in divorce, even after our home sold.
I got a letter from a lawyer today stating they cannot find record of my first divorce, and my lengthy marriage may have been void. I assume ex is trying to get out of paying spousal support which he is suppose to pay for 7 more years. I admit I may have been careless on the first divorce but I was sure I was divorced. I have now been sober for 25 years, I take care of my business now properly. I am also concerned now that I won't be able to collect SS when time comes as I was a stay at home wife and mother who gave up her career for family. And can he make me give back the retirement fund we split after the divorce? Thank-you for any advice. I will reluctantly contact first ex tomorrow to see if and where he filed divorce papers.
