My exhusband says he can ammend or reverse an interspousal grant deed that he signed giving my full title on the house, is this possible without my signature or permission?? The deed has been notorized and recorded. I have read that if he takes this to California court the deed wouldn't stand up and he could be put back on the title. Is this also true??? Looking for the truth to all this!!
Welcome shadesofbluehues.
One can reverse an interspousal grant deed only if the person who receives the property through the deed signs on it again and gives it back to the former. So, without your signatures, this is not possible, be it in any state.
You may consult an attorney aware of California property laws and take his legal advice on what can be done since the deed has been recorded. Regarding the deed without the grantor's signature (here it's you) is not legal after all.
Thanks.

Just to add a little more detail - The deed was singed by both of us, notorized and then recorded. Again, would this not stand up in court???
Thanks for your help in this matter.
Thanks for your help in this matter.
Not a problem as far as I understand. I guess both of you will be executing the reverse transfer in front of an attorney. He is the best one to help you with the drafting of the deed.
Let me explain further - Xhusband singed house over to me. It was notorized and filed at recorders office. He is now telling me that he can amend or reverse the deed without my signature and put his name back on the house. Can he do this??? Also reading some info on the net in the California court system if he takes this to court to get his name back on the house he would probably win, is this also true??? Thanks for your help Sara.

Hi,
As much as I understand, if you are a grantee who has received property from someone, then only you can transfer it back to the grantor or the former. So, until and unelss you sign it, the reverse transfer is not possible. Can you tell me where you got this info from? May be then I can go through it and clarify it further.
good luck
