A PROPÓSITO DE VARIAS SENTENCIAS DE NUESTRO TRIBUNAL SUPREMO SOBRE LA RESPONSABILIDAD DE LAS DEUDAS CONTRAÍDAS POR UN CÓNYUGE CASADO BAJO EL RÉGIMEN DE GANANCIALES.

Abstract

Many are the court rulings and legal aspects to be found in an issue as practical and commonplace as the workings of economic relations between spouses. There is no lack of legal controversy, especially when the point at issue is the use of the new agreement on marriage articles to disentangle community property from liability. Can jointly owned property be compromised by just one spouse acting individually? Can liability be exacted through the couple's community property or the acting spouse's private property? We shall endeavour to settle these questions and others that we shall see in this study.
