is it possible to secure a divorce in Texas without the agreement of the other person.
Answer
Yes. We do it all the time. In fact, in many divorces, the parties don't agree to ANYTHING.

False claims
Recently a woman I know socially ended and affair that she was having for 3 years to try reconcile with her husband. The ''dumped'' because my wife and I were confidants thoughout her ordeal, this man got it in his head that I was his lovers replacement. (I am not). Without any proof whatsoever he mailed a letter to my wife and this womans husband, claiming that we were having an affair and that we meet for lunch and after hour drinks and then retire to local hotel rooms. The dope wrote the letter on a pc and printed it but used his verifiable handwriting to address both envelopes. Is there actionable event here or do I just have to put up with this? The staement in the note was definitive, it said, ''your husband is having an affair'' and left the locations and hotels as generalities. He cannot have any proof since the allegation is untrue and none of the events happened in the context presented.
Re: False claims
This is actionable defamation (libel). However, you have limited damages unless someone believes this. You certainly can seek a court order forbidding future such contacts -- but that may bring more attention to the affair that -actually- occurred than it is worth.
A letter from an attorney telling him to desist is certainly a reasonable possibility.
In Massachusetts, it is a misdemeanor to harrass. You might thus bring the matter to your local district court to seek issuance of process. The clerk-magistrate who hears the matter after notice might well tell the jilted paramour to cut the crap, leaving the decision open for a few months.
With all such matters, your difficulty is in determining how much you need and want to get into this. A court action could be expensive and drawn out.

my gf is 18 and she wants to move out and in with me, she went to tell her parent and they blew up to a point where they threatened to kill me, we went to the police and they told me she has to be 18 and sixthes monthes old to move out because she is still in high school, is this true or was the cop messing with me since her dad works for the city
18 means 18. She can live wherever she wants.
My boyfriend and i lived in an apartment. We needed a bigger place to stay so my mom agreed to stay there and pay the remaining 4 months rent (nov 2010-April 2011).. A week before februarys rent was due my mom told me she was leaving and we had to find a way to pay rent. My boyfriend now has an eviction AND owe's the apartment complex 2500. We didnt have a written lease but a verbal agreement that many can vouch for. Could i take her to small claims court?
there is one twist, the apartment complex doesnt technically allow subleasing, but my mom still agreed to pay the remaining months rent.
Yes, legally you are permitted to sue your mother in small claims court if she agreed to pay the rent in exchange for living there. It is not a defense to the lawsuit by the apartment complex.
