My ex step mom quit claimed a house to my dad when they divorced. She then filed for bankruptcy. I inherited the house from my dad b/c he couldn't affort to pay all the late taxes, bills, etc. I paid them and now own the house. I unfortunatley agreed to let my ex step mom live there until she has her bills under control. Now my dad had a stroke and my ex step mom is back in the picture. She convinced my dad to ask me to give the house to her. I do not plan on doing this; however, I do not want her to make things worse for my dad. (She is very nasty to him.) I was wondering if I can smooth the not giving her the house over if there was a legal stipulation. Can she legally have a house given to her after she quit claimed it away and filed for bankruptcy?
Welcome kim_wesner,
If you quitclaim the property to her, your step-mom will become the owner of the property. This is irrespective of the fact that she quitclaimed it or filed bankruptcy.
