Can you be granted a divorce while pregnant by some one other than your husband? Yes, and the court can hold the issue of paternity under advisement until the baby is born and DNA tests concluded.

If so, would the child recieve my ex husband's last name? Not under those circumstances.

Would I be responsible for all court fees if we were seperated at the time I got pregnant? Payment of court costs has nothing to do with your sexual conduct.
