Re: Does my wife deserve spousal support?

First of all, you don't have zero debt. ANY debt incurred during a marriage is JOINT debt. If you were against it, you should have left BEFORE it got so high.
As for spousal support, that is all going to depend on your state and the disparity in income. If incomes are similar, then spousal support isn't likely. But it may be ordered for a certain time period to cover your portion of the debt since the joint debt is just in her name. You aren't going to get out of paying a share of the joint debt unless your stbx agrees to it.
