Debts subsequent to marriage which may be included in the communion of the marital estate

The debts incurred during the subsistence of the marriage by act or contract of both the spouses, or by the husband with the written consent of the wife, or by the wife with the permission of the husband, or by the wife alone in the cases where it is permitted by Article 1116, are communicable. § 1 - Where the common assets are not sufficient for the payment of the debts referred to in this article, the exclusive assets of any of the spouses shall be liable for the payment. § 2 - The spouse who has been compelled to pay any of the said debts or the major part thereof through his or her exclusive assets, shall have the right to be repaid through the exclusive assets, if any, of the other spouse to the extent the payment has exceeded half of his or her liability.
