Will I have to refinance or let the judge fix it in divorce that I pay loan?

I'm sorry to hear you are going through that. In order to get an award of maintenance in Kentucky the Court must find that you: 1) Lack sufficient property, including marital property apportioned to you, to provide for your reasonable needs; and 2) you are unable to support yourself through appropriate employment or you're the custodian of a child whose condition or circumstances make it appropriate that you not be required to seek employment outside the home.

Answered 13 years and 2 months ago by Darrin Harvey Berger (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Divorce

The house is the marital residence and only a court of competent jurisdiction can  award exclusive use and occupancy to one of the spouses. So if your Husband tells you to leave, stay where you are as his title to the house does not preempt your rights to remain.... Read More
