The divorce settlement would be contained within the Judgment of Divorce. Whatever you received in the Judgment would be what you would get.

Look at your judgment. It will state if you are entitle to property. If not stated you are out of luck.

Unless you just discovered an asset that was not divided at the time of the dissolution or other irregularity, then the dissolution is final and the court will not reopen it.

After the divorce is final your only entitlement is whatever the divorce decree and final orders gave you.

Once a divorce is final the court lacks jurisdiction to divide assets which were already divided. There can't be very much in issue on an 8 month marriage is there?

You're entitled only to what the divorce decree says you're entitled to. If you were properly served and defaulted or signed off on an agreed decree, the only way you can set it aside is by showing that you were coerced to sign an unfair decree or that you were induced by extrinsic fraud to default or sign the decree.

The answer depends on how long you were married, your relative incomes, whether you have children, whether all assets were properly disclosed, etc. I advise you to seek the advice of an attorney - even one hour's time can give you invaluable information.

What do you want? You can pursue final spousal support and partition (divide) the community property.

There are no do-overs in law. When a case is over it's over. If you wanted something, you needed to hire a lawyer while the case was pending and seek it.
