I am currently battling with my ex and trying to get divorced. Our seperation agreement stated that when the divorce was final she would be taken off my medical benifits from work. I filed the divorce papers with the court having her served, I waited the thirty days and went back to the court to get the divorce finalized to find that she had filed to stop the divorce. I was never served papers but did recieve them in the mail a few days later. I was told I should seek legal help which I did. Now after two years of case conferances we are still where we were when we started.
She now says that she has a heart condition and is diabetic and needs to stay on my benifits. She did not have either condition when we were married and I consider her obesity and her smoking habits to be contributing to these illnesses and i would see that as a life style illness and nothing else. There was a clause in our seperation agreement that stated no matter our health or financial status we were still obligated to our seperation agreement. I have done everything our agreement required me to do and now she is allowed to have our agreement changed. My lawyer doesnt think there is a problem with this. The big problem is that with my ex still on my benifits I cannot put my girlfriend on my benifits and when we get married I still wont be able to because the ex would still be on them.
I guess the big question is why can the ex change what the seperation agreement says after ten years when it was her lawyer that made it in the first place. PS I think my lawyer is a crackpot
