Re: social security number

This should not be very difficult. If the marriage documentation and city records do not include her SS#, she can still be sued for divorce and the divorce can still be granted.

At worst, the court can be asked for an order to her to disclose the information.

There should be some help avaiable in the prison. In the absence of such help, my fee for everything would be $400.

You are welcome to a consultation for no fee on your friend's behalf.
