Ok, maybe going against the grain, but I’ve become very good friends with a chica in CR. So, I’m asking on her behalf. Here’s the story (I’ve seen the legal documents, so it’s true). No, not me!
In 1999 a guy, 62 years old visited Nicaragua and married a 16 Year old girl, with her parents consent. He stayed with her in Nicaragua for about 2 months and left, never to be heard from again. (No K*ds).
So, she’s technically still married. Never filed for divorce. She provided me the marriage cert, and I quickly found him.. 83 years old living in CA with what appears to be a wife.
My questions to this group.
1. What would her best path be for divorce?
2. Do you believe she has claim to any estate value? Old guy.. 83.
3. If yes, what route do you think she should take (lawyer Nicaragua? Lawyer Ca?)
4. Any chance she can squeeze a visa/green card outta this?
I know, typically we’re not really looking to give info to support the chica…. But, honestly I found this behavior sickening.
Any help, appreciated. PM me if you want direct contact, or if your an attorney interested.
Don't be in any hurry to get a divorce.
Dude's 83, check with a divorce lawyer in his area and one here, and a private dick there to see what he may be worth, not too many poor old guys in California these days supporting a wife.
Back to the private dick : Is he sprinting from his front door to his hot sportscar with a sweet young thang on his arm or is he walking to an SUV with wheelchair lift with walker and oxygen and older woman?
She may be in line as first wife for some piece of the action when he trips the light fantastic, and maybe the estate would have to cough up a bundle to get rid of her.
Could her first legal wife status negate the wife there's rights? She can't legally be a wife if he was already married.
21 or 22 years, can she be eligible for social security?
Man, if he has $$$ and no will, she just may be the new boss in town...
Might be worth it to let sleeping dawgs lie and years from now when he enters his worm food stage, she can sue for big colones, more than her entire village has ever seen...
