Community property and guests

[Pal Sa]

This is not related to rental property. I did not find any relevant section in which to ask this question. If a married couple owns a property together, do both spouses need to invite a guest? Is it enough if one spouse invites? Does the other spouse have a basis to take legal action against the guest they did not invite?

 Hello Pal Sa,

You are trying to ask a very general question in order to translate it privately to your situation. Unfortunately, that is not going to be very effective. If you'd like to share the details of your concern we can render better advice.

Community Property is simply property acquired during marriage (i.e. wages. real estate) that under certain state's community property laws is considered the joint property of both partners in the marriage. Excluded from this are pre-marital assets, inheritances and assets acquired during a legal separation. 

Anyone can invite anyone else anywhere. Anyone can take legal action against anyone. I hope my answer at least explains why more detail is needed to help you.
