Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
I Jointly own a house with my two brothers. One brother owes back child support with interest (he is in prison) that exceeds his third of the property. I am being told that his debt could impact my & my other brothers share of the house. Is this true?

That is true. Go record a Homestead Exemption to your own interest in the property. No guarantees, but that may help.
