Caveat is a Latin term meaning "let him or her beware." A caveat is a caution or warning warning against certain acts by another. It is a formal notice given by a party to a court or legal authorities requesting to refrain from, or suspend, the proceedings.

Based on the above, it would be an official legal notice to the other party to the dispute, and/or the court. In the case of the individual, it could be drawn up as a document stating the legal reason(s) for its issuance and served on them or their attorney. In the case of the court, it could be presented to the court as a motion. If the judge believes the motion raises valid legal concern they will rule on whether or not it will be accepted in the case at issue.

If you are asking for this type of advice on this website, I strongly suggest that you consult with an attorney for assistance.

Another Perspective

A property caveat can be a legal notice recorded in the land records that warns prospective buyers of a pending lawsuit that may affect the title to the property. It gives notice that someone is claiming to have an interest in the property that would supersede the rights of any new owner. This notice can also be called a lis pendens in some jurisdictions.

You should seek the help of the attorney who is representing you in the legal dispute in order to draft and record an effective property caveat.

A property caveat may also be recorded to give notice when a potential buyer has signed a purchase and sale agreement. You can read ore about property caveats at the related link.

Can a married couple have a home in only one spouse name in Texas?

Yes is the strict answer, but in a divorce the gloves come off and the strict terms of the Texas Family Code come into play, even if some property is in one name. The law states: "Each spouse has the sole management, control, and disposition of that spouse's separate property. Except as otherwise stated in the Texas Family Code, a spouse's separate property consists of: (1) the property owned or claimed by the spouse before marriage; (2) the property acquired by the spouse during marriage by gift, devise, or descent; and (3) the recovery for personal injuries sustained by the spouse during marriage, except any recovery for loss of earning capacity during marriage. Community property consists of the property, other than separate property, acquired by either spouse during marriage. Property possessed by either spouse during or on dissolution of marriage is presumed to be community property. The degree of proof necessary to establish that property is separate property is clear and convincing evidence." -From Sections 3.001 through 3.101 of the Texas Family Code.
