Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet

In Texas, all property obtained during the marriage is presumed to be community property. As community property, it is subject to a just and right division. It is likely that a court would award you the camper and boat; however, all the property would be considered and divided in the divorce, including all the property in your wife's possession. Also, after the divorce is filed, you could negotiate the property division without having the court decide. If you can't come to an agreement, the court will make the decisions.
