Legal Question in Family Law in California
Can I get the house?
My wife has lost all control of alcohol. She has been fired from two jobs since completing a substance abuse center. All of our family has talked to her about what she is doing to our marriage. So I have had all I can stand and after fourteen months of this abuse I am seriously considering a divorce. Would I be able to sue this against her to get the house? There is a very long list of bad things she has done, I will not get into them now and not to mention the financial difficulties she put upon us.

Community property gets split 50/50. If this house is community property she gets half. We have a no fault system in this state.
