QUESTION
Can I have support spousal to my french husband?
Asked on Sep 18th, 2012 on Divorce - California
More details to this question:
I am not working and been married for 16yrs to a French national. A US citizen, I moved back to the US (California) a year ago with our 10yr old child to finish a degree. I am filing for divorce but he contests jurisdiction for alimony. He has a green card, signed a lease here for us, has a CA driver's licence but resides in France and works there. Can I fight this?

If California has jurisdiction over your husband, and it appears that may be, then spousal support is on the table if it is appropriate.

Yes, you can fight it! Seek advise from an attorney with International Law experience or Immigration Law experience.
