Selling home with being living apart

How does the Court look at someone if they tried to sell the house with your name on the deed without your consent?

A judge would not have a favorable view of the spouse that attempts to sell marital assets without agreement or court order and without the knowledge of the other spouse. It can also show that spouse’s inability to work together to dissolve the marriage and distribute the assets.
