Does creditor has legal right to collect from my wife because of community property state?
1. I have credit card debt (under my name only) for $30,000 and getting harder to pay for even minimum amount...what if I didn't pay for a certain period of time, can they legally pursue the payment from my wife...because we live in CA?
2. If I had mortgage more than the current home value and died, and the lender doesn't accept short sale and force my wife to sell and pay back the balance. Assuming my wife is not on the title at the time I were dead, can they still do that legally...because of CA?
Thank you for your advice in advance!!
