I filed for divorce in September. My husband never filed an answer or answer and counterclaim. Since then we've been trying to work things out. I'm wanting to know if my original divorce complaint can be amended and turned into a separate maintanance agreement instead?"

Possibly. Discuss whether it can be (which is fact-dependent) and whether it's a smart or bad move with your lawyer.

I suggest you speak with an attorney to determine if that is the best move for you. You need to know the pros and cons of obtaining a separate maintenance order.
