I'm 5 months pregnant and going through a divorce. I talk to a lawyer in 2 weeks, but I wanted to ask a few things first. He lied to me the whole time that we were together, even a year before we got married. He had 3 warrants for his arrest within 3 months that I only found out about because I looked online. And then when I brought them to his attention, he denied it even thought I had the proof. He left a tape that his lawyer had sent to him from when he got caught stealing (which I didn't know about). I have a ton of papers that he left in my car (in a bag because he apparently tried to burn it.) but all of the papers are from lawyers and collections saying that he didn't pay regular bills or his probation and a bunch of other things. (oh, he also cheated on me, but I don't have any proof that I could show in court). Also, I have proof that he cleaned out my bank account and that he tried to get credit cards under my name for him. He also signed up for a few things with his frist name and my maiden name (I hadn't changed my name yet). Anyway, my question is, would this be proof of fraud? And if not, could I use it for anything against him once the baby arrives and he tries to take it from me? I don't want him in the baby's life because he would be nothing but a dissapointment. I also don't want any money from him. I know these are just your opinions, but that's all I'm asking for.

You might be able to have your marriage annulled because of fraud. (He lied about basically everything.) You should talk to your lawyer, but I would think if you have evidence that he emptied your bank account and attempted to open credit cards using your surname that there must be a case there. You should at least be able to sue for the contents of your bank account. Also, if this guy has your SS# you should contact the SS office and ask about obtaining a new one.
