Vehicles purchased during the marriage are community property, even if only one spouse's name is on the title.
The court looks at whose name is on the title and who primarily drove the vehicle to decide who keeps it.
If a vehicle is in both names, it may need to be sold or refinanced into just one spouse's name.

Community debt in Louisiana is meant to be split equally, just like community assets.
One spouse may take on more debt while the other keeps less in assets to balance the scales.

Legal custody and physical custody are related, but they refer to different aspects of a custody arrangement. ⚖️
Legal custody generally involves the authority to make important decisions about a child’s life, such as education and healthcare. Physical custody generally refers to where the child lives and the day-to-day care arrangement.
Understanding the difference can help parents better understand the terms that may come up in a custody case.
