Update: Saw the attorney. Ohio is a no-fault state, but there is one small detail that people don't realize: For a divorce to happen, both parties have to agree to the divorce. So, both of us have to agree that we want it to happen. If one doesn't agree, it can only be done in proven cases of cruelty. My attorney said one of his clients refused to allow her husband to abscond to another state and file for divorce. Its been a year now and she refuses to let him become divorced.
Wife said she is getting an attorney. We will then hopefully sit down and negotiate terms for the official separation.
I won't release the money until she sits down and starts acting like an adult and negotiates. Dunno how she will take that.
