QUESTION

How do I petition our divorce case again?

Asked on Apr 30th, 2015 on Divorce - Nebraska
More details to this question:
Just recently the judge in my divorce case reopened the divorce because my ex-husband was fabricating and stealing our community property during the proceedings. I was going through the divorce by myself but the judge said that a lawyer could re-petition for these claims. What do I do now?

An attorney can review all issues and determine whether a new motion should be filed concerning the case. Consult with an attorney to discuss all options further.

Find an experienced divorce lawyer. If your friends and family do not know of a good one, try Avvo.com, or the Lawyer Referral Service of the State Bar, or online or the Yellow Pages. Good Luck. I hope your ex has the resources to satisfy a good judgment in your favour.

Get a lawyer. This sounds like a complex procedural problem and you need an attorney to walk you through it. Plus, with so few details, I cannot really tell what ?reopening? a divorce means.

You only have 30 days from the initial Decree to reopen the matter. You need to get a lawyer right away. Best wishes.
