What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Calif.

In calif. I filed a divorce on Feb . Married for 28 yrs. He told me that the house we purchased in 1994 is his house. Please review and legal advice on this.
-my family give us $10,000 that allowed us to purchase the Condo. The Condo cost $110,000, we put 10% down. After a couple of years we sold the Condo for $121,000. *His Uncle Willed his house to my husband, thus, He inherited the $200,000 House of his uncles, California. He pulled $70,000 equity from the house and put 20% down on our current house which cost $250,000. He took $55,000 plus closing cost to buy the house. With the money from the Condo and balance from the refinance of his uncle house .He purchased my Brand new 1995 Car which we paid cash at $21,000. The current house was purchased from his inheritance (the Uncles' House which was his Sole and Separate property). My husband believes the house turns out to be his separate property, As the Law states.-
Also, he said he has $10k Debts on his credit cards. He told me that is a community Debt. Am I responsible for his credit card debt? thanks!

The house he inherited from his Uncle is his house. The current house may have a portion that is HIS alone but it is not solely his house. Unless of course he sold the Uncle's house completely and all that money went into the current house and there was no mortgage or marital funds spent.
