What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Lousisiana, but the property is in Mississippi.
My fiancee' is legally still married to a woman who lives in Mississippi. While they were married he bought a house and put it in her mother's name for a while until they got around to putting it in his name. When the time came to put it in his name, the mother in law refused to have it done. My question is when they do get a divorce, which will be soon because we are getting scheduled to get married soon, who has the rights to the house. Does she get to keep the house and live in it or does he? Or do they have to sell the house and split the selling price of the house? Please help.
