I'm 66 year old female, my husband is 55 he wants a divorce after 6 years of marriage. I retired from my job in 2015. ?

Yes you can for a limited number of years.

This is not something that he should stop from occurring.

You have the right to the child dependency tax exemption.

What are my legal rights in real estate and should i count his past debt as child support instead?

Your rights include the past child support in Full.

In Essex county new Jersey what happens if a plaintiff miss a court date for a default divorce hearing?

You need to tell the judge that fact and explain your absence.

Yes you can because she should have disclosed that intention.

Write up a consent order to that effect and have a judge sign it.

Violation of Child Support

If you were a resident of the state New Jersey then yes because this order would be recognized by other states.

From what you wrote, that should be separately paid apart from child support.

If it’s ordered to go to her you can’t change it. But if it’s not you should discuss it with an attorney.
