    Breach of promise, fraudulent impersonation
    I uprooted my whole life to move and marry someone I met in prison. He was released on June 8 2013 and at that time he inherited a pretty big sum of cash. He wrote me 3 or 4 letters a day makig promises to me and to my disabled 4 year old grandson for additional therapy to help him learn to walk and talk again after being shot last year. I left my home we spent a week together he then sent me home to get parole etc taken care of, I have not been asked to come back I also found out he is a registered sex offender, he is still calling making promises but I know he has no intention of keeping. I had lined up a therapy and put a deposit what are my legal options

    You have no legal options. Unilateral promises do not create contracts.

    Your only option is to get a divorce.

    I don't see that they are married. They just played house for a week or so.

    The words "to move and marry" suggest to me that she moved to (i.e.: for the purpose of)" getting married. And "breach of promise" in the title suggests that he didn't marry her as he may have promised (no longer a vialble cause of action in most places, by the way). But you're right, it is ambiguous.

    She needs to clarify.
