Going through divorce. House is sold but ex taking me to court to gain a bigger share of house where I said let's do 50/50
The funds from House sale is being held with solicitor. Can I not take my share of funds till judge decides how split is done. I need access to the funds to be able to pay some rent.

Sorry I should have taken the time to write the post not in a rush. The situation doesn't apply to me. I was asking the question of what would happen in this scenario type of question. I personally have nothing to worry about frm my short marriage.0
