Legal Question in Family Law in California
California inheritance - separate or community property ?
Hello
In California under what circumstances would an inheritance be considered transmuted from �separate property� to �community property� ?
How is it determined if funds are �commingled� ?

If you received $100 and put that into a community checking account with $100, then you have commingled the funds. You can still claim they are separate so long as you can trace to specific separate funds back to your inheritance.
