Elwood,

yes, I can stop the d.

I'm thinking about doing it but would loose the house, the equity, everything would become community property and be 50/50 split. Right now the split is in my favor at 80/20.

He threatened me 2 weeks ago to refile immediately if I dismissed so that would probably happen if he's really hell bent on getting it.

It appears that it may be counter productive to get the d because that would really, really make him mad if he has to refile...so mad he may just take the boys away from me!
