What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
STBXH and I are trying to hammer out a settlement agreement ourselves to save money. We have done well so far, but have reached a sticking point.
STBXH's mom bought him a house (she paid in cash) - and put him on the title. (there is no morgage). He has fixed up the house to the tune of $60K. Aprox. $20K was from our joint checking account, (the rest was put on a joint credit card, and repaid by MIL - by STBXH depositing her $ in our joint account and paying the CC.) He did much of the work himself. I am asking him to "re-pay" me 10K - in the form of an addtional 10K from the proceeds of our marital home.
Am I intitled to this money (he obviouly doesn't think so) - or am I just out the $$ ?
Thanks!
