Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
If building supplies were charged on joint credit card to convert a porch to a room but the house belonged only to one part per prenup and subsequently the house was given back to the bank, should the non owner be responsible for the supplies? There was a prenup so she had no claim to the house. Should she be responsible for those charges as they were seperated at the time he signed the house back to the bank.

Likely depends upon whether this non-owner specifically agreed to share in these particular charges--or not. If so, then, yes, she's responsible for the charges. (And, merely because the charges were made on a jointly held credit card should not be sufficient unless there was prior agreement that all charges put on this card would be shared equally irrespective of which party made them and no matter what they were for.)
