If you are trying to segregate out premarital assets, and this premarital debt was paid off during the marriage, the court should reasonably consider the premarital debt.Quoting aimeed
Well, if you are arguing that you should get your premarital assets back, but he shouldn't because they went into the marital home, you probably won't get much sympathy from the court.Quoting aimeed
Commingling assets, or putting them into a joint asset such as a home, certainly can inspire a court to hold that they have been merged into the marital estate, particularly where there has been subsequent joint contribution to the taxes (e.g., mortgage payments, home improvements, tax payments). The longer the marriage, the more likely a court is to find such a merger.
