I will do this today.

Best of luck to you!

It’s a confusing subject for me, so it would be great to see how it plays out in an essay. Thanks for everything Lisa!

I will do my best to post a clarification of Van Camp and Pereira. The key thing is to keep it simple. These are formulas that courts in California apply to determine the Community Property interest of a Separate Property business that has increased in value during the marriage. It might be that the best way to explain how to handle this issue (the issue of value enhanced separate property businesses in community property) is to simply provide a sample essay that deals with this and include the answers to it. I actually think this would be more helpful than anything else. So, I will do my best to post an example here soon. I really do think it could come up as it has not come up in some time.

I am glad you enjoy the blog, thank you for saying so :)

I will put something up about Pereira and Van Camp soon – I really think it will be most helpful to see it in the context of an actual essay exam – so I will try to do that today (Friday). Stay tuned . . .

All the best,

Lisa

I went to an out of state law school and wasn’t taught community property and Kaplan does a poor job of explaining it…

And thanks Lisa! This blog is great!
