Under no circumstances was it ok for him to cheat on me, at that point I wasnt sure he was, I suspected him because he had done it to me before and left me and my children with no money for wks. I have had jobs and had to quit because of his scenes, I ve been through alot with him 21 years together and 14 years married.

It was never about money I loved him, I never cheated. I still love him but we have to survive and how can someone just dump their family?

Depends on the state you live in...community property states such as Texas its a 50-50 deal...and should you divorce, you get to find out everything he hid through the discovery process as all bank accounts become *discovered*...
I say cut your losses, allowing him to PAY you to cheat is just encouraging bad behaviour!

Come on be reasonable.. you are only doing this because he hurt you... and he could just stop working an you again would get nothing..... Just drop it and get a divorce and find someone who will love an respect you the way you want to be..
No need in stooping to his level an getting all mean about it,, beside if you divorce you will prolly walk away with alot more then he will....... so that would be your best bet...
And even if it is noterized the judge could throw it out depending on if he maked enough to survive or not an the judge would prolly laugh at that one.....

So, if I understand this correctly, he's free to cheat on you as long as he gives you 60% of his paychecks? Do you still cook his meals and do his laundry and clean his house? Sounds like a bargain.
But seriously,
Sounds like he agreed to it under duress, which makes it not binding.
Did he have a lawyer review it on HIS behalf?
Did it state that he had the right to have a lawyer review it on is behalf and declined to do so?
Does the agreement violate his rights?
I don't think it's legally binding.
How long have you been married?
Are you divorced or separated?
Do you have any children?
Have you considered getting a lawyer?

Will an agreement between husband and wife that is notarized hold up in court?

Ok..first of all I know he should not have cheated...But 60 % of his pay checks..Come on now. He has to live too. That is crazy!! Dont be money hungry all because you got hurt. Just leave the man alone and go on with your life.

You would need to contact an attorney to find out about the legality of this in your state. In many states unless it is mandated by a judge this would definitely be non-binding.

A notarized contract is binding but you'll have to take him to court to enforce it if he's not willfully keeping his end of the agreement.

Talk to a lawyer
Who notarized it? A Commissioner for the purposes of oaths?
If it was just witnessed, then it's not notarized

I belive it could be binding only if u are getting a divorce. In this case u need to seek a lawyer and see what your options are. good luck

Small claims court. A signed contract between two adults is a contract.
