If my wife now does not want a divorce, is it still possible for me to file for it unilaterally? If so, what documents would I need? And would she be able to challenge the divorce request? Or stop the process? Again, we have no joint property and no kids.

I appreciate you taking the time to help me with all this! I know the situation is a little challenging, but my wife (who I haven't seen now in over two years) is a little unstable and changes her mind frequently on things.

Also, if you are going to put this on your website, I'd request that you don't put up my name or email.

I’ve been living in America for 7 years. Recently I found out that my mother privatized an apartment where she lives (cooperative) and where I have been registered since 1989. She also registered her grandson (my sister’s son) there and didn’t say anything about that to me. In her will made about 10 years ago she intended to leave 2/3 of the apartment to me and 1/3 to the nephew. A month ago I was told that she had made a new will according to which the apartment would be divided in two! The nephew is getting married soon and of course he is going to register his wife there. It is the way of the world that children are born in marriages which means one more dweller. I do not have other living space. I rent an apartment in America… Can my relatives deregister me from the apartment behind my back? In case they can what will I lose? What rights to the apartment have the newly registered persons? Can I register my daughter in the apartment? What shall I do for that? I am sorry for emotions but I wouldn’t like to be left with nothing. Thank you.

The question is as follows. What kind of responsibility is provided for a person who hasn’t registered her divorce in a Civil Records Office of the Russian Federation? A bill of divorce was issued at her request (in 1998 Taganrog City Court dissolved the marriage concluded between Russian citizens in 1992 in Kaliningrad). She registered the second marriage with a US citizen. Did she have a right to register the new marriage without registering the divorce? By what laws is this procedure regulated? This person concluded the second marriage with the intent to get material benefit and didn’t mention her previous marriage.
