So, there it is... he legally should have disclosed the inheritance as part of his finances, and he says he did not include it.
He is now paying me 17K, in addition to the 5.5K he has already given me. 17K is the limit of how much "gift" money you can receive in our state without being taxed. The 5.5K he's paid already I consider as payback for the wedding/honeymoon and the chair I bought.
So, I agreed to this arrangement. I don't want him to go to jail or to get into legal trouble. He pleaded with me, so I said yes. Since it's not the money I am after, but what is right, I feel 17K is good enough, and now we're even in terms of what we've each paid for in the marriage. |
No one’s going to jail over it. Lol it wasn’t a criminal case. He might be fined for contempt of court though. Jails would be full if every cheating lying jerk went to jail
Once again he is lying. He’s not “deliberately” didn’t disclose it? Lol what does it even mean? He lied “not deliberately”? How do you lie but do it in non deliberate way? He thinks you are stupid
Not sure why you emailed about all of this to him. If justice and fairness what you are after you need to pursue it through legal channels. But I guess if you get money out of it it’s something. Better than nothing
He’s on to scamming next woman. Despicable individual
I hope you don’t decide to keep hanging out with your ex or keep in touch after all this
