I bought my house (in Ohio) before I married my husband, so the note is only in my name. We will be getting a divorce soon, and he has threatened to sue me for monies he has contributed to the household expenses. Does he have and curtesy rights, and what are my rights, if any? He is purchasing a property in KY next week, and we have not finalized the divorce. Does that mean that i have dower rights to this property, as we are still legally married?
Help! thank you
Help! thank you
Hi vickiboyles!
Welcome to forums!
As far as I know, the curtesy rights have been abolished in Ohio but the husband can claim dower rights in the property. I would suggest you to contact an Ohio based attorney and take his opinion in this regard.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
