Is workmans comp. settlements considered as part of the marital income. We were married 3 years and I worked and payed the bills and he also had a job, but he played with his. Now that he has a permant injury and had a large settlement coming he has found a new girlfriend ( he had 3 weeks before I left) he has said that I can have everything and all the bills and the old car he is trying to keep from paying anything. All he wants from the house is his toys and clothes. What (if anything can I do) since I have been the one paying everything and how do you stop it. It seems the only thing that hurts him is his pocket book when he has to pay bills or give someone money. He owes just about everyone money from 30 thousand to his brother to who knows what else

Be careful. If you go after his "personal" income, he may well saddle you with his "personal" debt. In your case, I might be better to leave some things off the table.

"He owes just about everyone money from 30 thousand to his brother to who knows what else"
"The only personal dept we have is to his brother everything else has been paid"
How do I reconcile these two statements you've made?

Sorry what I ment was that all our bills at our home are kept paid, because I make sure that it gets there or my son who is staying there does. And he keeps borrowing for things that we don't need. Like him being on workmans comp and going out and buying a new 2005 camper. His brother just bought one. It's like lets keep up with the Jones' even though the income isn't there. As for me. If you don't have the money start cutting back and do without until you can afford it. He just keeps borrowing from his family to pay for is toys and trips and drinking. I just can't see borrowing to go play with. I feel it is like you go pay my bills while I go play. And if he can't borrow it write a check and I'll cover it later. So I burned every check in the house. Only use debit card with ATM acces, because if it's not there then you can't over draw it. Sorry! Now my sons checkbook has come up missing. I recently found out his parents put him in jail for forgery and altering documents. What a mess.

your son needs to report his missing checkbook
that is a given
and then you need to press charges against anyone using it...or he does...sounds like you have some piranhas around, .....maybe you need to call the exterminator....for real though...does not sound healthy at all..

Thanks for the advice on this. I put a fraud allert out on my credit and my sons checkbook, he closed the account and started a new one because he didn't know if any had been taken from the box as well. I then changed my phone number because he would text me or call me wanting to come back home. I told him he had nothing to come back to. Now things are getting ugly. He is trying to say that I am stalking him and that it is me texting him. I go to the same place if I go out and never anywhere that I know that they go to. So two weeks ago I went with my cousin into town and was with friends and about 11 pm here they come so I enjoyed myself and tried to ignore them and they put on such a show for everyone that the bird and the bees would have blushed. Later a friend of mine told me that they didn't make too many friends that night. Then the next night they did the dame thing only the girlfriend was by herself and went and got him later after watching my phone going crazy on the bar. He was texting me and I wouldn't answer them. My friend told me to tell him to f off and so I did. Well the texts kept coming finally I turned off my phone and that was when she went and got him. When I left that night I told my friend I give it 15 minutes and my phone will start ringing. I didn't even get the sentence out and my phone was ringing and he was texting me to start again I answered 1 and then I got one that said text Bob tomorro he is kind of busy right now, Monday I changed my number and I haven't heard from them since. Talk about your grounds for adultry. This girl has such a rep in town that the ladies at the local Moose have black balled her
