Who can be sued ? Spouse or both
I've always wondered who can legally get sued if a couple owns a rental property and an incident such as a slip and fall or dog bite occurs at the property. Let assumes the couple had no insurance coverage, no umbrella policy and civil suit is pending. No mortgage, in equitable marriage state. No homestead on rental
Who can personally get sued ? Husband or Wife ? if ...
1. The deed is in only one person's name but lease has both name
2. Deed and lease one name.
2. Deed and lease has both names
What happened if only one spouse can legally be sued and suit won($>rental property ) how do determine who gets what when they're NOT getting a divorce.
