Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: moving out the house with children and leaving the country in mutual agreeme

I presume you are talking about the community property. The property is fixed at the time of separation and you would be entitled to your half. Realistically, however, it is very difficult to preserve your property in your absence. Your spouse would be responsible for any losses, but if he needed to trade-in for a new refrigerator or something like that, then all sorts of problems of proof arise. In the divorce court, each party is required to submit an inventory and that is what is divided in the divorce. If there is something of great value that you want, you should take steps to protect that property when you leave.
