Legal Question in Family Law in Washington

Spousal Abandonment?

My husband up and left the state when I asked for a divorce. We have been married 9 years. I know what state hes in but dont know where. He is refusing to contact me.

He has been the bread winner for 9 years, he left me having no job, or home ..

Do I have any legal grounds here? If so what are they?
