A bit different when it is community property vs a BF & GF situation.


How on earth is it different?

In a community property state, all assets and debts acquired during the marriage are 50/50 owned by both spouses. That title and car loan may have the husband's name on it, but the wife is 50% owner of the car and 50% responsible for the loan. That doesn't apply in a BF/GF relationship.

OP needs to just suck it up and keep paying that car note and try to take the Jeep back when the divorce is settled, or let her have it and make her assume the car note. Going to take it from her would be an unwise move.

in LA pretty much all property acquired normally in a marriage has a HEAVY presumption of being community

there are certain exceptions (like inheritance) but that's not "normal" acquisitions of a marriage

car title/registration doesn't affect an ownership interest. it's just a government designation
