Legal Question in Family Law in California

liability

I am currently separated from my husband and if he ran into any legal problems will I be held liable?

(from running up his credit card bills, loans without my consent and issued because we have a joint account to manslaughter because of a DUI)

Re: liability

Whether or not you would be liable would depend upon the circumstances. If the credit cards are in both of your names you would be liable. So long as you name is on the title of the car he is driving you would be liable for his driving. Your best approach is to cancel all credit cards in both names and start new accounts.
