Who can creditors of spouses, married in community of property, turn to for the recovery of a joint debt?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking about legal principles regarding creditors' rights in relation to married couples who are in a community of property, specifically regarding the recovery of a joint debt.

More Information

In a community of property marriage, both spouses share equal responsibility for debts incurred, which means creditors can only target the joint estate.

Tips

A common mistake is assuming separate estates can be targeted, but in community of property, assets and debts are shared.
