However, the week before the wedding, Brenda started to get cold feet and had sexual relations with her ex-boyfriend, Chris. A few weeks after Alex and Brenda’s wedding, Brenda found out she was pregnant. During her pregnancy, without ever telling Alex, Brenda called Chris and asked him to meet her at her doctor’s office for a DNA test. Chris agreed to do so. The DNA test confirmed that Chris was the baby’s biological father. In October 2017, Brenda gave birth to a boy, David. Brenda never told Alex or Chris about the DNA test results and Chris never reached out to Brenda to find out the test results.  \nIn January 2018, Brenda’s favorite aunt died and Brenda inherited a home worth $250,000 and $100,000 in cash. Brenda deposited the cash into her and Alex’s joint bank account, which held all of their funds, including paychecks, and which they used to pay their general living expenses. Since this deposit, this account has always had a balance of more than $100,000 .  \nThe next month, Alex, Brenda and David moved into the home. Just after moving into the home, Alex and Brenda took out a $200,000 loan to pay for home renovations and over the next year, Alex performed and completed all of the renovations without pay. When the renovations were finished, the home was worth $600,000 . Alex and Brenda used the joint bank account to pay for all expenses relating to the home, including upkeep, maintenance, taxes, and insurance. Payments toward the renovation loan were also made from the joint bank account.  \nIn 2021, Brenda gave birth to Elise. Alex is Elise’s biological father. Alex lost his job shortly after Elise was born.  \nBrenda’s career flourished and Alex sporadically found high-paying jobs that allowed them to pull themselves out of debt and even pay off the $200,000 renovation loan. Alex, though, could not keep any of his jobs for very long. Even though Alex and Brenda were doing well financially, Alex’s bouts of unemployment resulted in daily arguments and the couple’s relationship began to deteriorate. In August 2025, Alex lost another job. When he told Brenda, they began an argument during which Brenda told Alex that she had had sex with Chris the week before their wedding and that Chris was David’s biological father. Alex said he did not believe her. So, to prove it, Brenda showed him a copy of the DNA report she had secretly obtained before David was born. Alex became so angry that he picked up a heavy glass and threw it at Brenda. The glass hit Brenda in the face and broke her nose and gave her a black eye. Although Brenda sought medical attention for her broken nose, she never called the police or sought to press charges against Alex.  \nAlex left the family home the day after the fight, but he and Brenda continued to talk and they both wanted to try to move forward with the marriage. In September 2025, Alex moved back into the home and he and Brenda began to re-engage in sexual relations.  \nThough he tried to let it go, Alex was still upset about Brenda sleeping with Chris and he was reminded of it every time he saw David. Six months after moving back into the home, Alex began an affair with their neighbor, Nanette. In April 2026, Brenda walked in on Alex and Nanette having sex in the family home. Brenda immediately kicked Alex out of the house, and he has not returned.  \nPlease answer the following seven subquestions. The subquestions in Question 1 are not weighted equally. Explain each answer; an answer without an explanation will receive no credit.  \n1.1 As of the date of this exam, in July 2026, what are each spouse’s options for divorce? Explain fully, including the potential time delays, benefits and complications associated with each option. (10 points)  \n1.2 Should the home be classified as Brenda’s separate property or as the couple’s community property? Explain fully.
