[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Years ago I posted about my father who was borderline demented engaged to marry a gold digger woman. Everyone slammed me and said that I should let my father be happy and make my own money and stop worrying about an inheritance....

Fast forward and as expected she takes his $9000 monthly pension and gives the caretaker $500 a month and pays about $500 in other expenses. No other expenses since house is paid off. She ignores him (he is totally demented) and takes the money to buy herself a new car, pay off her son's debt, and pay for the son's wedding. Meanwhile, she cut my mother off. My parents had a loose, non legal, spousal support agreement. My father used to give my mother $3000 a month. THIS IS A MESS.
Now that my mother had to give up her house, we are thinking of suing. The marriage is 4 years along.
Any chance of winning?

Not a chance unless there's some kind of actual elder abuse going on (e.g., refusing to pay for basic needs). Otherwise his money is their money, and she's definitely not obligated to give it to his ex just because he was generous for so many years when there was not legal agreement.[/quote]
