I have a question on property. My stbx crashed is vehicle during x-mas. He has two trucks, older models, one my son is driving, the other is just sitting there. He also has two motorcycles. He took a job in Washington DC and now he is coming back because he needs a car. He wants one of my vehicles. Can he take it even if the divorce isn't final? Is the legel speration binding enough to keep his paws off my stuff?

When were the vehicles purchased?
Are you legally separated or divorced?

Trying to get divorce. He hasn't lived in state for more than a year and has not been in the house for two years. But we verbally agreed what was clearly his and what was clearly mine. Nothing has been signed yet. We are going through mediation next week to come to some kind of written agreement and to get it all done. BE DIVORCED! And yes, they were purchased during the marriage. /:

If you have nothing signed you have no agreement. If it was me I would hide the vehicle so he does not take it and wait for the mediator to help you with division of property. But then my ex took my car and I went through hell getting it back. I was too ignorant to know I had purchased it prior to our marriage so it was mine. 2 divorces later I am more informed. LOL!

You need to get him to agree which vehicles are yours in mediation. If that does not work, you will need to file for temporary orders to keep him from taking your vehicles.
Understand also when you leave mediation you will not be divorced, you will still be married until the judge signs your divorce decree.
If you hide a vehicle, that is concealing property and in violation of the Preliminary Injunction (which is a Court order) and you will be in contempt.
If you need help with any of this, contact me at sw_legal@hotmail.com or call me Monday at 602-488-5490.
Good luck to you.

Thanks for your information. I didn't have time to read this until today! I will tell my lawyer about these orders. I did hide my car. But he didn't even come close to the house. He is just threatening and intimidating. Making me worry. In order words, "F'N" with my mind!! JERK!! Thanks again!
