Orders Dividing Marital Property
Orders dividing marital property are court orders separating any and all community property you may have acquired during your marriage. You may be able to work out a separation of property agreement that both you and your spouse feel is fair. Remember though, that until a judge signs off on your agreement and issues California orders dividing marital property, your community property and debts still belong to both of you. Your community property does not become separate property even if you have agreed on how to divide them between yourselves.
When you divide your property and debt, you should come up with an agreement that divides everything fairly equally, so that both of you end up with roughly the same value of your property (and debt).
