Home title transfer

Sr. Guzman:

My friend Charles was legally divorced from his Dominican wife in 2007. Prior to the divorce they as a couple owned two houses which were recorded on the two titles in both their names. He would like to now have the title revised for only the house that he received as part of the divorce settlement.

His question is does his ex wife need to be involved in the revision of the title document that he received as part of the settlement?

Thanks

Of course, the divorce settlement should include the authorizations of what is to be done with any community property. If for some reason this has not been done and cannot be done now amicably, then the only option is to go to court.

Thanks, please clarify the following.

I have seen the recorded divorce document(2007) and it appears the division of the property was spelled out clearly. If this is the case then would his ex wife still need to get involved with the revision of the title of the house that my friend received as part of the agreement?

Thanks very much. They were divorced here and the agreement spells out the division of goods clearly.
