Depending on your specific state statutes; in most cases the asset distinction is thus: If title to asset is listed as --- AND ---; then to sell or dispose of the asset, BOTH signatures must be on the sale whereas if the title is listed --- OR --- then either person can dispose or sell the titled asset WITHOUT the secondary signature.

In Hawaii if a married spouse expires is the surviving spouse responsible for a credit card debt of the deceased spouse if the living spouse never signed any document?

The estate is going to be responsible for any bills. But the assumption is that the wife inherits the husband's assets. One way or another, the spouse ends up paying the debt. The spouse has some right in all real property owned by the husband. If the assets are not enough to cover the debt, the real property may have a lien placed against it to cover those debts.

No, He cannot take all the property. If he does he will be hauled to court. It all depends on the state law where the divorce was filed. I would advise the husband or wife an any similar situation to consult an attorney prior to trying to flee with the assets. Even if the wife or husband were lazy and did not contribute or had bad conduct state divorce law prevails. can he just take property that was purchased durning the marriage to anothe state without being legally separted
