I have served my husband with divorce papers and he let the 30 days he had to respond pass, then spoke with a lawyer friend of his and told me to please not file for Default and that he would sign the papers. It has been a few days and I have heard nothing.
What does Default mean? Why doesn't he want me to file for it? Is he trying to trick me? If so, what can I do? What could he do?
We have a young child and I am trying to keep things cool, so that he suffers as little as possible. We also have a condo under both our names. He has been VERY unhappy with me filing for divorce, harrasing me and calling me names, but I am still trying to be in good terms with him for the good of our son, so I don't want to actually file for Default and upset him now that he says he will cooperate. But I am afraid that I will actually end up paying for trying to be nice.
I asked for 50/50 custudy of the child because I read that it is the best thing for him, that he needs to see both parents as much as possible, and all I want is half of the money gained by selling the condo.
But, again, I am afraid he is trying to trick me and I would prefer not to get a lawyer because of their impossible rates: 40% of my gaining is just too much to deal with and would leave me with very little.
Please help.
