Pendente Lite Order
Mon, 08-27-2007 - 6:16pm
I have to have a lawyer to get one so the Alabama Bar Association gave me one in a city nearby the consultation fee is $25 dollars. I am so scared this all means it official. The Pendente Lite Order just gives us a legal separation. For a year we are going to try to go to counseling. I wanted to go every week because we have the insurance to do that but he said his boss wouldn't like that and he wasn't messing with his job over it. He would go once a month. All his boss asks if you leave early come early. He always lets everybody work their time out like that. But once again his JOB needs to come first. I told him at the 8 month mark we start bringing in our daughter to get counseling with us for the Divorce. The Pendente Lite Order just gives us a LEGAL separation. I am the one wanting this but I am so scared. Tomorrow I go looking for jobs after he has pushed me to stay home for 23 years. One good RESUME' there! But I do have a lot of volunteering from this last year and this year and I was told I can use that. The people I work for manager/boss said they will give me a glowing report. There is always hope.
