I assume you and your husband were married in Louisiana and bought a house in Louisiana. If so, the house is community if purchased AFTER the marriage. Therefore, anyone who buys the house from him without your signature is really stupid since you own half of it. Just like half his income is yours no matter where that income comes from.
