If your business is incorporated, a partnership, or an LLC being taxed as a corporation or partnership, the IRS cannot assess you personally for 941 taxes without assessing the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty. This penalty can only be assessed against a person who was both "willful" and "responsible" in the non-payment of the taxes. By default, a spouse who was not involved in the business should not fall into this category and therefore could not be assessed with any portion of the unpaid 941 taxes. However, if you live in a community property state the IRS may only assess this debt against one spouse, but will be able to pursue the assets of the marriage because the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty would be a post-marital debt. If your company was a sole proprietorship or an LLC being taxed as one, the proprietor is automatically liable for the 941 taxes personally (the IRS does not have to make a separate assessment). In this case, only the income and assets of the liable spouse are subject to IRS enforcement (unless, again, you are in a community property state).

What happens to marital assets when bigamy is involved?

In cases of bigamy, the legal status of marital assets can be complex and varies by jurisdiction. Generally, only the assets acquired during the legally recognized marriage may be subject to division in a divorce. The assets from the second, unrecognized marriage may not be considered marital property and could be treated differently, potentially complicating claims to those assets. Courts may also examine the intention and conduct of the parties involved when determining asset distribution.

What is marital discrimination at in HOA in Las Vegas NV?

Read your governing documents to determine how they are allowed to discriminate. Your state law and Federal Housing laws may supersede governing documents, however, when it comes to the legality of -- and real estate rights of people involved in -- marital partnerships. If you entered into a marital partnership while owning property governed by an HOA, the board is burdened with the proof that your partnership is somehow not allowed. HOAs -- and sellers -- are not in the business of screening potential buyers according to any marital partnership guidelines.
