If the home I live in does not belong to me, or to my husband, but to one of his relatives, can it be seized for a judgement against me?
I need to know whether to include it on the paperwork for "Motion to Claim Exempt Property"

Not listed anywhere involved in it. However, my husband does list with the county so he pays taxes, but even the tax department told me that doesn't constitute ownership. I just wanted to make sure so I could protect him if need be.

No, it can't. It is the legal property of that person and you will be considered to be leasing it - the exception would be if you're listed as a secondary party on the deed or lien.

Btw....if you're looking to put your house in that relatives name now and it's not already, you can be criminally prosecuted for hiding assets - also called conversion.

If neither you nor your husband legally own the property, it cannot be seized in a judgement against you.

Exception: in drug cases--if you were dealing drugs out of the house, the government could take the house, but the charge would be against the property owner for allowing illegal activity to happen on his property.

No! Make sure you keep it in someone else's name! they can't size what isn't yours. Because they claims are against you no your relative, so it's smart to keep it in their name. It can't be taken from you that way
