Legal Question in Family Law in California
Health coverage w/Tricare (retired military) after divorce
My parents are seperating after 46 yrs
of marriage. Father does not want to
get divorce although he has companion
because mother would lose health
coverage. Is this correct?

Generally speaking, a spouse cannot insure the ex-spouse after the divorce is final.
If he continues to claim she is his spouse, that might establish a common law marriage.
Your father can contact the military for their policy regarding insurance and ex-spouses.
Your parents need to talk to an attorney!

Medical insurance is available for a spouse. After the marriage is dissolved there is no spouse to insure.
