If a husband with Michigan residency files for divorce in Michigan and his wife is a Florida state resident can the wife file in Florida and move jurisdiction to Florida?

There is no easy answer to this question and it really depends on the circumstances of the case. The most overriding factor is going to be the location of the children. Generally speaking the state that has jurisdiction over the children will take the case, but not always. Second is the location of any property. If the parties lived in Florida all their lives and have homes and cars and what-have-you in Florida but the husband only recently established jurisdiction in Michigan, the Michigan Court may be persuaded to decline hearing the case and transfer it to Florida. But again, this isn't always the case. Third, the court is going to consider the circumstances of the case. If the wife has moved to Florida to avoid abuse, Florida may take the case. There are a host of other factors the court may consider but the best answer to this question is...it depends.

How much are Disney world tickets for 1 dayfor a Florida resident?
This isn't a simple question to answer; it depends on which park you're going to and what day you want to go, and on top of that Disney could change the prices at any time. So let me just direct you to Disney's own website to find out.https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/tickets/?rate=florida-residentsYou have to sign in to the website and have a profile indicating that you're a Florida resident to see the Florida prices. Also, unless you're a Florida resident you can neither buy nor use these tickets (you have to show proof of Florida residency at the park entrance, so even if your cousin who lives in Florida buys them for you, you still won't be able to use them).
