I know that doesn't address the question about the car, I took him off my insurance as soon as I kicked him out, he had wrecked THREE cars over a year and got charged with DUI, but honestly until the divorce went through I just had to cross my fingers and hope he didn't damage anything or hurt anyone until the judge signed the papers. Talk to your lawyer and make sure they know how urgent it is to get those papers in front of a judge as SOON as the time limit is up.
