Paul Nixon, a man from Texas, is
currently wanted by the US authorities after forging his wife’s signature to
facilitate his divorce from her.
According to a statement by Mark
Herman, a Harris County constable, Nixon “fraudulently” finalized the divorce
without his wife’s knowledge by submitting forged documents and false
information to a district court in Houston.
He stated that the divorce also
involved the forgery of the signature of a notary public and has now been set
aside due to the fraudulent filing.
Nixon is wanted for aggravated
perjury and has a no-bond warrant out for his arrest.
Herman urged members of the
public who have information regarding Nixon’s whereabouts to contact the
dispatch or their local law enforcement.
“On May 14, 2019, a deputy with
Constable Mark Herman’s Office responded to the 6800 block of Cypresswood Drive
to meet with a complainant. She advised that her husband filed for divorce and
completed the entire procedure without her knowledge or consent and that the
court had already completed all hearings and filed the final divorce decree,”
the statement read.
“Constable Investigators
initiated an investigation and discovered that her husband, Paul Nixon,
submitted several forged documents and false information to Harris County
District Court 257, including a forged waiver of service.
“The waiver of service also
included the forged signature of a Notary Public. He then committed Aggravated
Perjury by testifying in District Court 257 during the final divorce hearing of
the validity of these forms and the information on them.
“The court has since granted the
motion to set aside the divorce citing due to the divorce being filed
fraudulently. Paul Nixon is currently wanted by law enforcement for Aggravated
Perjury. He received No Bond out of the 248th District Court.”
Herman had earlier told KPRC, a
TV station, that a search for Nixon is ongoing.
“We have teams out looking for
him right now, I can tell you,” he told the station. “And we have an idea where
he’s at. So hopefully, he’ll turn himself in. If not, we’ll catch him. Just a
matter of time,” he had said.
