Question 1
A married couple living in Washington purchases a home during the marriage using only the salary the husband earned at his job after the wedding. The deed is titled in the husband's name alone. Under Washington community property law, how is the home characterized?
Correct Answer:
Community property because it was acquired during marriage with earnings from labor performed during the marriage
Question 2
Before marriage, a Washington spouse owned a rental house as her separate property. During the marriage she received $30,000 in rent from the house. Neither spouse did any work managing the property; the rent was generated entirely by the property itself. Under Washington law, how is the rental income characterized?
Correct Answer:
Separate property because rents, issues, and profits of separate property remain separate
Question 3
A couple married in Texas and acquired investment accounts there with the husband's earnings while both were domiciled in Texas. They later moved to Washington, where the husband dies. The accounts would have been community property had they been earned while domiciled in Washington. How are these accounts treated for purposes of distribution at the husband's death in Washington?
Correct Answer:
As quasi-community property, in which the surviving spouse has a one-half interest at death
Question 4
A Washington spouse receives a $50,000 inheritance from his deceased aunt during the marriage and deposits it into a brand-new bank account opened solely in his name, into which no other funds are ever placed. How is the account characterized?
Correct Answer:
Separate property because property acquired by bequest or descent is separate
Question 5
A Washington spouse owned a $100,000 brokerage account as separate property before marriage. During the marriage, she deposited community earnings into the same account and made numerous trades, so that the separate and community funds can no longer be traced or distinguished. How will a court most likely characterize the account?
Correct Answer:
Entirely community property because the funds were commingled beyond tracing
