Should a teenage boy be forced to sell his car as part of a palimony verdict by the courts?

Question

so that his former girlfriend can get half his assets?

Answer 1

You're asking if a teenage boy should pay palimony to an ex-girlfriend? h**l NO.  

Answer 2

No.

Answer 3

It depends on the circumstances. That is too blanket of a question to simply answer yes or no. More details are needed.

Answer 4

If you have a judgement awarded against you in court and have no other way to pay, you usually have to sell assets.

In the case of a teenager, the court would probably allow time to pay if s/he applied, so this chap could save his car by getting a job and paying his debt off.

But I've never heard of a case where childhood bf/gf have to 'divide assets'. What did he get from her ~ half her braces?

Cheers :-)

Answer 5

If they're 16 and live with their parents?  Of course not. That's silly.

If they're 19 and lived together for a year, and the car and lease are in his name even though they've both been contributing to the payments, and the breakup will leave her homeless because she can't afford a security deposit on a new apartment, that's a different story.

Answer 6

You have your facts wrong.  Palimony is the male version of alimony.  It is a support settlement paid to a former spouse as part of a divorce.  Girlfriends/boyfriends are not entitled to palimony or alimony, only married couples.  And chances are a teenage boy does not have many assets to split with someone even if they were married.  

Answer 7

If she helped him buy the car YES!    

Answer 8

We need to get feminism out of law, social services, government, education, and cut off their access to tax payers money.

All their laws need to be reassessed.

Answer 9

If she's been awarded money and that's the only way he can afford to pay it - TOUGH.

Sorry but aren't people more important than cars?
