Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
Why won't ANYONE answer this question?
This is my 3rd time asking this question. Please help. I just want to know if inheritance money is considered as ''Community Property'' in the state of CA. What if I was to buy something with the inheritance money (like a car), would that then be considered as ''Community Property''? Does a Legal Separation stop �community property� in CA or do you have to file for divorce?
I would appreciate a response. I don�t want to share any of this money coming in to my �husband� who left a few months ago. We are splitting up but it cost too much to do it legally and I want to know my rights if he were to ever find out. Thank you for your time.

What you receive by inheritance is seperate property It can continue to keep that charachteristic as long as you do not co-mingle.
