Divorce After 3 Months - Alimony?

Card image cap

Location: Northern California

Me and my now ex got married in December because we had already planned to get married in the next year and they aged out of their parents health care, so we got married early to add them to my work's health insurance. Well they were verbally abusive and hit my dog so i asked for a divorce in February, they decided to move out same month. Now they're demanding I give them $1,000 a month til the end of the year and wait to get divorced until then as well so i can continue paying for their health care ($1,400.00 per month value). They said if I don't agree they will get lawyers involved. To me this doesn't sound logical at all but they truly believe they're entitled to this much and that a judge would agree? Do they really have a leg to stand on here? For more context they've been out of work for the last 1.5yrs due to health complications but they are not on disability. I've been the only one working, although their family is very financially supportive towards them.
