Divorce Law
  All States        
When I got married, I moved into my wife's house. We are now getting divorced and I want to keep the house. Do I have any rights to it?

Unless the house was re-titled in your name it is most likely separate property and will belong to your wife. If you contributed to the mortgage or other upkeep, you may get some credit in the economic portion of your divorce; however, you have no claim to the house itself.
