Legal Question in Family Law in California

Can I file an Order to Show Cause for Spousal Support if my husband who has left the home and has been gone 3 months now. He has been served the Petitiion and Summons, but has not responded yet. He was served on March 10, 2011 and it hasn't been 30 days yet, but I need money now. He has not paid the house payment in 3 months and is filing bankruptcy and putting the house in the BK. I need to stop him. He has also canceled my medical, dental, car insurance and shutting things off and taking his name of the things. HELP I live in California

Yes you can file for one when you file for divorce. You can also get expedited support orders. Try going ex parte to get temporary orders if your situation is dire.
