Re: she asked for a divorce

Debts and assets are divided based on what ythe parties own, the parties' earning capacity, health, age and other factors. I take it you do not own the house. The court can consider any improvements made to the home in which she is living. You did not say whether you have any children or how long you have been married. The court will not likely expect you to support your wife if she quit her job voluntarily. If you give me more information, I can give you a better idea of your position.
