I do not understand your question. Are you asking if the house is your separate property? The answer is yes.

You generally need a separate document dealing with your marital property, the Divorce Judgment deals with the divorce only.

We have been seperated for over a year.
He purchased a home and both of our names are on the title only his on the loan.
I am co-owner with my brother to property that my mother signed over to us 10yrs ago (with residential right until death). She is now deceased.
My husbands name is not on the transfer of my mom’s property but he has always had to sign for it to be used as a lien and had to sign for the sale in a portion of the property (reason stated - because I was married).
My question, do we need equitable distribution papers for either ro both of the properties.
Can this be simply stated in the divorce and all done at once?
