If you file for divorce after you kill someone, creditors can “pierce the veil” so to speak. Technically tort claims can go after non-exempt community property, but they are supposed to go to the tortfeasor’s separate property first, then the tortfeasor’s sole management community property (things like his income; bank accounts in his own name; things titled in his name only), then and only then after non-exempt community property (homestead, most retirement, etc. is exempt from judgment). In this case, the divorce was filed well ahead of the tort; and it sounds like it was probably settled in mediation (reading between the lines based on how the divorce was granted with little fanfare - so probably the decree was based on a mediated settlement agreement). If that’s the case, all community property would have been partitioned as of the date of the MSA, meaning there is no longer any community property even before divorce is granted. The only thing that a spouses’s separate property is liable for is “necessaries” (living expenses, medical bills, etc.) for the other spouse. So no way a tort judgment can reach the ex’s separate property. So there’s little to no chance that the ex wife is liable for his tort claim since it occurred well after separation and after the divorce was filed; and even if there was some community liability her exposure would only be to non-exempt community property (of which there is likely none).

Community debt doesn’t exist, that’s a common misnomer. It’s either a debt of the husband for which he is liable, a debt of the wife for which she is liable; or a debt that both husband and wife are liable for. In this case, any tort claim (wrongful death, etc.) would only be against the husband, snd any judgment would only be collectible against him. It doesn’t matter that they were married at the time. The date of judgment will be post divorce anyway, so there isn’t a community estate with his ex any longer.

if? When.

First two episodes are streaming. I watched them, and I like it so far. I like the casting of the guy who plays Lalo on Better Call Saul as the mom’s fiancé/secret villain. He plays a good bad guy who you want to like.

Oh and when I was in high school (late 90s) my hometown got big enough for a McDonald’s. Before that we were strictly Dairy Queen only town, so it was a step up (to a teenager). For a while they had a special where on one day of the week (Tuesday?) they had 29 cent hamburgers and another day of the week they had 39 cent cheeseburgers. Limit 10. My friends and I would go there after baseball practice with a $5 bill and just order a sack of hamburgers or cheeseburgers for each of us. Nothing like 10 McDonalds cheeseburgers and a cup of orange Hi-C (that we filled our water cups with on the sly) as an after school snack, and then still eat dinner later when our parents got home. Teenage boys are something else.

Haven’t read the whole thread, but my parents used to take us to Shoney’s for the buffet when kids would eat for free, and they made us lie about our ages to stretch the free-ness. One time I was at the buffet and I was past the age cutoff, I was loading up my plate with their “spaghetti” and some nosy kid said I was too old to be eating for free. I told him to mind his own business; but looking back, what a weird and dick move by that kid. I bet he grew up to be a Narc.

So who was Mencken supposed to be, Josh Hawley or Tom Cotton?

Lol at UCLA QB signing an autograph after the TD and getting an unsportsmanlike penalty.

Welp, I called that one. Didn’t see the Demerzel final solution, however.

No one cares anymore.

Here comes a little seasonal weather.

For brother Dawn (who I assume you’re talking about), I think the current Day will spare him because it fills the “look, we can change/we have souls” argument pretty well that he just made with the Luminism subplot - and that can make it easier to sell the Empire being the way to its trillions of followers.

This show fucks.

At least ST isn’t monkeying around to

They already did. On the first drive.

“Gaping hole” is an accurate description of our defense.

I was told this was a bend but not break D. Looks like it’s all breaks.

Remember how Aaron Franklin used to have "Tempeh Chili Frito Pie" as an option at his trailer? Weird how that didn't make it over to his brick and mortar location. Oh wait, no it's not.

It's gonna happen on round 2, bub. It's science.
