Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
How can I get my ex to sign a quitclaim deed, he is filing for bankruptcy and refuses to sign so I can save the house. I have a restraining order agents him so I cannot have any contact with him. But the bank that holds our loan, my sister, and paralegal that has drafted a quitclaim deed has called him and he refuses to cooperate. What can I do.

If he legally owns half of the house it will be included by the federal trustee in the bankrupt estate. If the whole house was awarded to you in your divorce and in the divorce court's order he was specifically ordered to deed it to you, you can have him cited for contempt of court and in the alternative get a court order instructing the clerk of the court to sign in his place. This question should have been posted under the family law aegis.
I agree with Mr. Seidler. You refer to him as your "ex." Is he your ex boyfriend or your ex husband?
