Husbands Not Liable for Wife Debt Without Consent
Fourth Court of Civil Appeals held that a promissory note and mortgage stolen or signed by a married woman without her husband’s consent are void. The decision, written by Chief Justice W S Fly, traced the shift from the common law unity of spouses to the now recognized right of married women to incur and pay their own debts. The case from Tarrant County involved an $11,000 note and mortgage to United Home Builders, with the court canceling both and restoring title to Brazile, siding against the insurance commissioner.
