Section 3089 Of Article 3. Enforcement Of Support Of Spouse Who Has Conservator From California Probate Code >> Division 4. >> Part 6. >> Chapter 2. >> Article 3.
3089
. If the spouse who has the management or control of the
community property refuses to comply with any order made under this
article or an order made in a separate action to provide support for
the conservatee spouse, upon request of the petitioner or other
interested person, the court may, in its discretion, divide the
community property and the quasi-community property of the spouses,
as it exists at the time of division, equally in the same manner as
where a marriage is dissolved. If the property is so divided, the
property awarded to each spouse is the separate property of that
spouse and the court shall order that the property awarded to the
conservatee spouse be transferred or paid over to the conservator of
the estate of that spouse to be included in the conservatorship
estate and be managed, controlled, and disposed of as a part of the
conservatorship estate. The fact that property has been divided
pursuant to this section has no effect on the nature of property
thereafter acquired by the spouses, and the determination whether the
thereafter-acquired property is community or separate property shall
be made without regard to the fact that property has been divided
pursuant to this section.
