Married in NY, prenuptial written in Texas.

Married in NY, prenuptial and post-nuptial written and executed in Texas

A question to anyone that has some knowledgeable direction to provide regarding this matter.
I was married in NY, under a New York state license. The prenuptial & post-nuptial language is written to nullify & neutralize the Texas Family code protections for a spouse. The prenuptial does not mention New York.

The divorce was filed in Texas in Nov 2009, is now just a few days from finalization under Texas law.

I'm told I have no wiggle room in Texas - the prenuptial is 'air tight'.

Is there any flexibility or disparity in New York's code of Family Law which conflicts with a Texas family law? Can the divorce be contested in New York if neither party is a resident of New York ?

The document states "Mr. X and Ms. X are entering into this agreement pursuant to Article XVI, section 15, of the Texas Constitution and relevant sections of the Texas Family Code"?

The prenuptial appears to have nearly everything covered in Texas, including her/mine inheritance bequeathed from the Will and Last Testament of each other or from the death of a relative to either one of us respectively.

I'm posting this same question under the New York section of the forum.
