I began divorce proceedings against my husband in February, because of his EA, and was looking forward to the DN coming along soon. However, my solicitor emailed the other day and told me this:
" We are able now to apply for a date for Decree Nisi, however, I would simply add a note of caution at this stage. I am experiencing some difficulties with the Legal Advisors who have taken over the role of determining the applications for Decree Nisi. It was previously conducted by District Judge’s and over the past 27 years I can safely say I have not experienced the level of difficulties that I have over the past 6 months.
Unfortunately, I can well envisage some difficulty with the Legal Advisors who have taken over this role as their preference may well be to reject all applications for Decree Nisi whilstever you remain living at the same address."
Has anyone else come across this problem? All the advice I've seen says to stay put until the financials are sorted, don't move out because it can put you at a disadvantage, etc. I have asked my solicitor for his advice, but he takes ages to reply.
I'm 99% sure I can't get the fucker to move out, because he has dogs that need kennels. He earns a lot more than I do, so would be able to pay rent, whereas I would really struggle. I could pay the mortgage easily enough. We have 3 grown-up children, two of which I take to work in the morning because we have a very sparse bus service, and the other one goes on a bus to school. Anyway he doesn't speak to two of the children!! I work close to home and he travels around a lot. He only needs a place for one. WWYD?
