A question

If I understand you correctly, you are not divorced and have not filed for divorce. If that is the case, your wife can not get alimony from you. Child support is not an issue because the boys live with you. However, even if you were divorced, it is very unlikely that your (ex)-wife would be entitled to spousal support. Under Texas laws, spouses are almost never entitled to support absent certain rare exceptions. Generally speaking, a spouse in Texas could only get support if they could PROVE that they were unemployable. - Wendy Jaffe, ESQ.
