Re: seperation

It all depends now how long you have lived in Texas. You must have lived here for at least 6 months before you can file, and you must have lived in the county where you file for at least the last 90 days of those six months. I don't know of very many ways you are going to get spousal support in Texas after just one year of marriage. We're pretty much a "get a job" kind of state. Good luck!
