Legal Question in Family Law in California

I'm preparing to file my divorce papers "again" and I have a classic car that has both our name on it because she went to DMV to register the vehicle and forged my name and also included her name on it. I didn't think about it then however I'm wondering how this will effect my divorce. Will I have to sell the car? Should I sell it now and get it back in my name? What can I do in order to stop her from trying to get the car? Is there someone that can help me get her for forging my name? I really need help with this. Thanks

Title with DMV alone does not define if the car is community, separate or a blended asset. When was the car purchased? If you bought it before marriage or got it as a gift during the marriage, then the car could be your separate property. If she fraudulently submitted documents to DMV that she now claims gives her an interest, advise the judge at the time you are at hearing on this asset.
