As for the dogs, as more of the story comes out, I don't think you have a problem. The dogs were required as a result of doctor's orders for YOUR HEALTH. They were purchased with YOUR PERSONAL FUNDS. They are registered IN YOUR NAME ONLY. You are willing to give up two community owned dachsunds for the Yorkies ... he only wants them to effect further damage to you.
Neither a mediator nor a judge will let that stand. Your disability will take precedence.
IMO, do not try to hide them. That will weaken the case that they are required for your health. You could also be accused of trying to hide assets - which he is already doing. Let all the malfeasance be on HIS side, not yours.
Good luck ... |
Sounds like you have some work cut out for you. You should track down all and any paperwork (will/attornery handling it or executor of your aunts estate) and show true ownership if the guns and other items that YOU inherited. If the cars are in both of your names, who paid for what--should also be considered community property, as well as house, so why should he get it all?
Then I would definitely talk with the doctor(s) and get them to help.
It amazes me how people can become such "so and so's" during a divorce. Best of luck to you. Hugs.
