June is traditionally the
month lor weddings, and many
couples will be taking marriage
vows within the next few weeks.
A certain symbolic transfer of
"worldly goods” is often asso-
ciated with the wedding cere-
mony, but under Texas law the
act of marrying another does
not give you the right to take
control of his property.
Generally speaking, each
spouse has the right to control
and dispose of his or her own
separate property. The separate
property of a husband or wife
includes property owned by
either before marriage, and that

after marriage by gift or in-
heritance. Any other property
acquired after marriage is pre-
sumed by law to be community
property until the contrary is
clearly proved.
Aside from the ordinary com-
munity estate, there is a class
of property known as the wife’s
“special community,” which in-
cludes all the income from her
separate real property, and
probably the interest on bonds
or notes, and dividends on
stocks stocks owned in her sep-
arate right. While the husband
may have similar assets, the
law accords them no particular
distinction from ordinary com-
munity property.

matter is somewhat confusing,

. There are laws exempting the
wife’s separate and special com-

for debts incurred by the hus-

to his separate property and the
ordinary community property.
On the other band, debts in-
curred by the wife in obtaining
necessities for herself or the
children bind all property be-
