[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is OP in DC?  Her family is in CA, her husband in TX. If she has no job and is dependent on others then she needs to move toneither TX or CA.  What would keep her in DC?  And OP needs to get a job ASAP. When you choose to put your spouse first this is why can happen. And she should be the first to file for divorce.[/quote]

What would keep her in DC? Here's a summary from the thread so far: If she moves to TX, her DH, who seems very quick to threaten divorce and throw his weight around because "I'm a lawyer," may still divorce her--only he'll have her in TX where divorce law may be more harmful to her than to him (as a couple of PPs say). If she moves to CA with their kids, the lawyer husband might use that against her in court too. In other words: A divorce looks pretty imminent no matter what and she shouldn't move the kids anywhere just now.

I'm not saying either case is legally accurate, just that those are scenarios PPs have brought up as potential reasons for her to stay put for the moment.

DH took a job that supposedly required him to move from DC to TX. The fact she didn't go with him seems to indicate the marriage was already shaky--at best. The threats to divorce her if she doesn't move to where he is sound like someone who already wanted out and made a move to force her into a choice where he could claim she's keeping the kids from him. Technically maybe she will be doing just that. But moving to either TX or CA now sounds like it would trigger other problems for her. She needs to get a better lawyer who can lay out what happens if she moves and advise her on filing first. And fast.[/quote]
