Legal Question in Family Law in California

How much money is my ex entitled to?

My ex owned a home before we were married. During our marriage we purchased another home together. He also sold his original home, and took the proceeds and paid off our current home, as well as other debts. Now that we are divorcing, he claims that he is entitled to all of that money back. My question: Is he entitled to get all of the money he used to pay off our mutual debts?

The money he used to pay off the house mortgage he would be entitled to a return. The money used to pay the community property debts would not be recoverable.
