He had to submit a financial statement when filing for divorce. I never saw his... and I should have been allowed to see it, first of all.

I looked it up and this is what is says about inheritance in my state:

"First, the timing of acquisition is important. If the property was inherited before the marriage or after the divorce proceedings began, the non-inheriting spouse will have a more difficult time getting a share."

He inherited this money after divorce proceedings already began. I am not sure when it actually arrived in his bank account, but the judge did review all paperwork, including our financial statements, and said that the Divorce Agreement was fair and reasonable.

IF I did somehow get fooled, I am going to be SO angry because I am struggling over money right now .
