Throckmorton, TX Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

The property and the children are two different matters. The divorce decree governs on both issues, but you will notice that the house is in one seciton fo the decree and the children are in a totally different section. If you got the house in the decree, the house is yours. A later agreement about the house is not enforceable. He would need to file some type of modification to change the propery division concerning the house. As to your possession and access to the children, that should be enforced through a suit to enforce access and possession. It's a totally separate issue than the house. If your ex-husband has engaged in parental alienation, that should be addressed with the Court as well.

Typically, when a marital residence is subject to a mortgage loan but is awarded to one spouse in divorce proceedings, the dispossessed spouse signs a "Special Warranty Deed" conveying their interest in the residence to the spouse to whom the residence is awarded, and that spouse in turn signs a "Deed of Trust to Secure Assumption" of the mortgage debt.  You should contact the attorney who handled your divorce proceeding to ensure that the appropriate ancillary documents were properly executed and recorded in the Deed Records.
