here in oz where scout and I come from divorce doesn’t instantly stop spousal maintenance claim. There’s a 12 month time limit after divorce becomes final to claim maintenance.
All the more reason I think to start the process. Hopefully he’ll hold onto a job for the next year but long term prospects are murky. Seems like the best chance of not ending up supporting him is to start the legal process and maybe in the meantime figure out a way for somebody else to warn him that he’s jeaopardixing his job and needs to be more circumspect with his affair? He won’t hear it from you obviously. While I understand how satisfying it might be to see them both fired, it’s going to end up costing you money, so I would figure out who COULD clue him in that he would listen to.
