Sorry, too long to format, but here it is.
During his 25 years of marriage, Thomas Rossi never saw a marriage counselor, never strayed and never doubted a relationship so close that he shared an electric toothbrush with his wife, he said.
Then Denise Rossi shocked him by demanding a divorce. And she wanted it in a hurry.
Now he knows why: On Dec. 28, 1996--just 11 days before she filed for divorce--Denise Rossi won $1.3 million in the California Lottery.
She told no one in her divorce case, and Monday her secret caught up with her. A Los Angeles family court judge ruled that she had violated state asset disclosure laws and awarded her lottery winnings to her ex-husband. Every penny.
Superior Court Judge Richard Denner determined that she acted out of fraud or malice. He based his decision on a deposition in which Denise Rossi admitted that she concealed her winnings because she didn't want her ex-husband "getting his hands on" them.
"Moral of story: It pays to be honest from the beginning," said Marc Lerner, attorney for the 65-year-old jilted husband.
Lerner said tears rolled from his client's eyes when Denner announced his ruling in court. For her part, Denise Rossi, 49, said she was stunned and is contemplating her next legal move.
"Yes, there will be an appeal," said her attorney, Connolly K. Oyler of Santa Monica. He called the judge's ruling "very punitive."
But Thomas Rossi's lawyers say they are hearing it described another way: karma.
"Maybe people will think twice about hiding assets during a dissolution," said Lerner, of Brentwood.
Thomas Rossi could not be reached for comment Tuesday, but he weaves a compelling tale in his court papers. Before their divorce--and the fateful Lotto windfall--the Rossis were "a couple of homebodies" from the Westside who did everything together, he said.
"We shared the same bathroom, and we even shared the same electric toothbrush," he said in court papers.
Denise, however, tells a different story in her filings and an interview Tuesday. She said she had been unhappy for many years and was looking for a way out. He was always broke, and she was always working, she said.
Her chance came when she and five co-workers in a now-defunct clothing design firm pooled resources to play the lottery and hit the jackpot, sharing $6.6 million, she said.
"I'd wanted to get out of this relationship for years," she said in a telephone interview. She credits luck for her lottery windfall and blames her ignorance of the law for her failure to disclose the winnings.
She had her husband served with divorce papers at the little West Hollywood shop where he developed film and shot portraits of aspiring actors.
His business folded, and he declared bankruptcy in 1998. He went to work part time at a chain photo store.
Then fate struck. More than two years after the divorce, a misdirected piece of mail landed in Thomas Rossi's mailbox. It was a solicitation addressed to his ex-wife from a company that pays lump sums for lottery winnings and big legal awards.
The May 7 letter from Statewide Funding said, in part, that the company had "helped hundreds of lottery winners like you around the country receive a lump sum payment for the present value of their future annual lottery payments."
What lottery payments?
"I think he scratched his head for a while, saying: 'What? This can't be,' " attorney Lerner said.
The California State Lottery Commission confirmed in July that Rossi's ex-wife had won $1,336,000--payable in 20 annual installments of $66,800.
Thomas Rossi learned that Denise went so far as to have the lottery checks sent to her mother's address in Pleasant Hill in Northern California.
He obtained a court injunction a few days later. He said his shaky finances in the aftermath of the divorce made his former wife's secret "even more despicable." Had she disclosed the winnings, he would have received half under California's community property laws.
Fighting to hold on to her winnings, Denise Rossi told the court that the lottery ticket had been a gift from a co-worker. The judge didn't buy it.
Oyler, her attorney, said he might have had a chance during the divorce to help her keep the winnings--if she had only told him about them at the time.
"I could have argued successfully that it was her separate property," he said. "Or we could have argued and we would have reached some adjustment. But the judge got mad and gave it all to him."

I mean, that’s not really how divorce court works. If he bought the ticket, there’s no way she would get any winnings or a recompense. Unless she is significantly dependent on him, she won’t even get much money other than property items.
[–]Krogg 19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
In divorce court you have to disclose everything. Any asset, property, income, cash, investments, everything.
Yes, if married at the time of the winning draw, it is considered a part of the on-going disclosure and would need to be disclosed to the other party.
Unless you have a prenuptial agreement, half your shit goes to the other party if not agreed upon. If it's property, it is to be sold and value split, or valued and one person keeps it while the other gets a credit.
Of course anything can happen, you could agree on whatever you want, or a judge can do whatever he/she wants, and IANAL, but I am currently going through a horrible family law case and know this stuff all too well.

After 13 months, I just nailed her on perjury. Hopefully this will be over soon.
Moral of the story: when you get caught in a big lie you told a judge, don't make up another lie to cover it, then make fake docs to back up the second lie and tell the judge those docs are in fact real.
How about just don't lie.

When I was practicing divorce law, I had a call from a woman who just won a similar amount and wanted a divorce asap so she could keep it all.
I told her to get lost. I stood to make a lot of money on that case but that's some serious bullshit. I sure need a lucrative client but I won't be part of that.
[–]NEED_A_JACKET 61 points62 points63 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Could you not have advised her to go the non-dickhead approach, and maybe give 25% or whatever is reasonable in a case like that to the husband? I'm sure there'd be plenty of practical reasons why it would be a lot easier for her to just give him something. If you weren't helping her she would just end up going to someone less moral (probably not the hardest thing to find in a lawyer). Then you could have done him (and the situation) a favour whilst getting paid for it?
[–]Nagi21 23 points24 points25 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
The issue is that in 99.99999% of cases, the other person doesn’t have a need to settle, since lottery winnings are generally split down the middle anyway.
[–]NEED_A_JACKET 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Well, in the same way then, he could advise that the best outcome will be 50-50 and that he could do it quickly etc if it's offered upfront and make sure the client gets to keep the maximum amount (50%).
Otherwise they'll just try to find someone else for a while before settling on the 50/50 split with another lawyer.

Probably not. There is caselaw that basically says it is a marital asset. The Court can decide how fair the division is, but she for sure would be giving a substantial portion to the husband.

Oh, fuck off. That's total bullshit. Any family law attorney would take that case for the husband. And yes, it's because of the payout. Unless you were committed to only pro bono, I guess. When you're talking about millions nobody declines and they still get paid when they lose. Often very well.

I wasn't taking the case for the husband. And after learning confidential information from the wife, I would have been conflicted from representing him.

The italians say something that looks like "si non e vero, e ben trovato" (Even if it is not true, it is well conceived), often shortened into "si non e vero..."
[–]Marlsboro 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
It's probably supposed to be "se non è vero, è ben trovato" where "trovato" (found) is used with an ancient acceptation as "conceived", as you say. I'm trying to think of what this could have come from but I can't. It might be a super-old saying that no current Italian has ever heard of but survived thanks to the diaspora.

At the time he bought the ticket it was not worth $1, but $0.50 to $0.70, depending on the amount the lottery pays out (they obviously don't break even). The ex-wife was paid up to 25 cents more than she deserved. He should sue her for it.

No. When you are married your partner becomes a permanent roommate and sex slave. When you move in together you put a line down the middle of the residence. Your side and their side. When you get divorced, you saw the residence in half straight down said line, pack all your shit in an old El Camino and hit the highway.

That's just standard how decree of dissolutions work.
Especially in community property (old spanish territory) states that still go by that Catholic style law.
In those states you're each liable for 100% of the debts each other incur while married. Once you've filed for separation and the decree of dissolution is finalized you're free and aren't responsible for her shit or debts anymore.
That should also work similarly with divorces. If she receives anything which is likely it would only be to maintain the standard of living she had while married. That standard didn't include a lottery winning so bitch is fucked out of luck.

Except that's not how the law works. The money used to purchase the ticket(s) were joint funds, because the divorce was not finalized, thus, the winnings from the joint-funds purchase mandate that the money be split.

The ticket was bought with joint money, thus the wife is entitled to half the future benefits or loses.
[–]monkeyboi08 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link
So if you buy stock with joint money and it’s worth $10,000 when the divorce is finalized but $100,000 in ten years can she sue later?
The value of the ticket was $1 when the divorce was finalized, that’s all that matters.
[–]andyb521740 -4 points-3 points-2 points 4 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link
The answer to that is yes she is entitled to any future money that was made thru a joint investment pre divorce unless the terms of divorce agree to not share any future investment income.
[–]monkeyboi08 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
So when does she get it? Whenever he sells it? So if she wants the money now you say “fuck off I’m selling in 30 years?”
I’m pretty sure that you normally look at TODAY’S value and split it.
“I’ll keep the house and write you a cheque for half”, not “I’m going to keep living in the house for 30 years then sell it, at which time you’ll get half”

And this is why lawyers are involved in divorces, financial stuff can get messy and complicated. They can decide exactly what they want done with the investment. Sell it now or sell it 30 years. It's joint property both parties have to agree one person doesn't call the shots.
[–]monkeyboi08 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
And then the judge decides that he bought it, it was worth a dollar at the time, and now she’s entitled to fifty cents.
[–]andyb521740 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Unless agreed upon otherwise future earnings from joint investments are 50/50 split. The current value is calculated at $.50 each but the couple agrees during the divorce how future winnings/investment income is to be processed.
Now if the ticket holder can prove the ticket was bough after the divorce without using joint money than ticket holder is entitled to 100% of the winnings.

I assume that their contract had something along the lines of “I have no significant assets that have not been disclosed and this contract settles this matter”
I am not an expert but I’d be surprised to hear that divorces would be so open ended. You’d think you’d want to finish things off, and unless it comes to light that the other party hid something significant from you then it’s over. Otherwise you’ll be suing for their socks in six months.
[–]andyb521740 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Correct, if one party is hiding assets/investments during the divorce that are later discovered a judge is going to hand someone their ass and probably award everything to the other party. If it was really bad the judge can levy fines and jail time for perjury. Judges are very very very smart people.
A lottery ticket would be really easy to determine purchase date and how the winnings would be split.
[–]monkeyboi08 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yes, and it was purchased before the divorce but wasn’t a significant asset so didn’t need to be disclosed, no more than a pair of socks would be.
No significant assets were hidden, so the matter is over and dealt with.
My mom is a judge and I’m definitely smarter than she is, therefore I must be very very very very smart.

ILPT: Pay for a hooker with joint money and beat her to death. That way your wife has to split your sentence with you.

Sure if she was an accomplice

I need more context before judging. What if he was an abusive asshole?
[–]Gonomed 12 points13 points14 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
You just asume every divorce is because the guy is an abusive asshole?
[+][deleted] -10 points-9 points-8 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
You seem to have made a giant leap from a quick example I've given to ask for more context to my entire philosophy towards the blame in divorce.
[–]Universal_Cup 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You’re first thought was “is this guy a abusive asshole?” No wonder people were pissed at that

This is exactly why I am against lottery winners being allowed to be anonymous. IF she had been allowed to remain anon, he would never have found out.
