Assignment of debts and loans upon your divorce

Most debts that a married couple incurs between the date of marriage and the date of separation (not separate debts) will be part of the community estate.

Educational loans, however, incurred during marriage for the education and training of one spouse will be assigned to that spouse.

Any civil money damages that one spouse incurs while acting for their own benefit and not for the benefit of the couple will be assigned to the spouse who incurred it.
