I have a couple of questions, but first my story.
I married my husband in 1996. We were living in Florida when I left him in 1998, and I moved to Tennessee. At the time I was four months pregnant with our second child and was the sole support for our first child. Since I have left I have not had any contact with him. Because of the fact that I am raising 2 children on my own, with no support, I can not afford the $700+ to file for divorce. There is a chance that he has filed a divorce, but since he does not know my address, it would be a default (I think that is what it is called).
Here are my questions:
1. If he has filed for a divorce, how would I find out?
2. If I file for divorce, do I need to file in Tennessee or Florida?
3. Is there a way for me to file on my own? He does not want anything to do with his children and there is not property or money involved. I also do not know his address so It would be a default.
Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
