My spouse inherited a large sum of money while we were married. It is only in his name. We have been married 18 years...Am I entitled to any of it?

Ordinarily the answer would be no, but if that money was contributed to the common pool and merged with it, you're entitled to argue that it should be treated as part of the marital estate.
