I have recently been diagnosed with an illness that has resulted in me feeling very unwell. Due to this my STBEH and I have not sorted out finances as part of the divorce process yet. I thought he was fine to wait for me to get better, but he has applied for the conditional order on our joint divorce application with no discussion with me. I don't want to sign the conditional order until I am well enough to discuss finances.
He is very aggressive and has told me several times that he doesn't want me to 'get his money' and he makes the whole process unpleasant. I suspect he has signed the conditional order as he wants to push through to finalise the divorce without finances being sorted. He has hinted at this. He has said that he will go ahead with the divorce despite no finances being arranged. He earns far more than me so would gain from this.
Is he able to move the divorce process forward if I have been/am unwell (been off work for months) without us agreeing finances?
Is there a form I can complete to stop the divorce progressing until I feel better?
Thank you for reading and I hope someone can advise me. I'm trying to avoid contacting my solicitor as I don't have lots of money.
