H and W married in 2010 and live in California. Prior to the marriage, W was a successful entrepreneur with own skincare company, “GlowUp, Inc”, and had accumulated substantial wealth. After marriage, W continued to run GlowUp, Inc, and made substantial profits, which she deposited into an investment account titled solely in her business name. She did not discuss this with H. H, a screenwriter, experienced several years of sporadic employment. Without informing W, he borrowed $50,000 using a joint credit card to finance the production of his short film, which he posted on YouTube.  The film was a failure.  When the card statements arrived, W was furious and paid it off using funds from her GlowUp investment account. Around the same time, W secretly transferred $200,000 from her secret investment account to her sister, calling it a “business loan” but never demanding repayment. She did not tell H about the transfer. In 2023, W purchased a Tesla for herself, paying $80,000 from the GlowUp account. She took title in her name only and told H, “This is mine. You never paid for any of this.” In 2024, GlowUp was sued for product liability. W’s separate bank account was levied to satisfy a $250,000 judgment. H immediately filed for divorce. Analyze the rights and obligations of H, W, and creditors under California community property law with respect to the following: The GlowUp investment account and related transactions. The credit card debt incurred by H. The Tesla purchase. The product liability judgment and creditors’ rights. Any potential fiduciary duties and breaches.
