    Question Spousal Maintenance with a Spouse Claiming Disability

    My question involves a marriage in the state of:Arizona


    I have been married for 32 years to a vet with severe PTSD. He wants a divorce. He get $4100.00 mo in Va and SS disability income. I am 62 and on SS at $780.00 per month.

    Can I sue for spousal maintainence when his only income is VA and SS disability?

    I will be completely destitute is I can't.

    Thank you,
    Blue and Lost

    Yes, you can. However if its awarded you might have some difficulty collecting from him if his PTSD makes him unreasonable.
