The judge just said he couldn't be expected to come back to court b/c he was a service member. Ex had over 72 days of leave available. He took a vacation during the time he was asked to come back. He knew absolutely what he was doing, and snubbed his nose at the court, just as he did during the hearing when the judge yelled at him.
********************
It does not matter how many days of leave a person has. A member can invoke the SCRA for any legal proceeding, even when they are stateside, even for local cases. My husband did this twice because he could not take leave, and the judge granted it automatically without any sort of process from our lawyer other than invoking it. Leave also has to be approved by people's bosses.
And no, I really don't see how you feel the need for alimony for a 13 month marriage. If he was abusive then leave, get divorced and move on. You don't drag things out for two years. It reminds me of my ex that got lucky on a techinicality and was able to re-open our decree and wanted me to pay him 44K in "income splitting" even though he ditched me and my son, never paid child support, and left me to pay all the marital debt when he filed BK. Needless to say the judge did not order it.
I am a college adjunct professor (instructor) and I move with my husband too and have not encountered any problems like you have described, no saying they don't exist, but i have worked in two states at 3 different schools and requirements have not been that different from state to state. I did have to take a few grad courses, that did not total more than $1800 for the three.
