Section of Common Debt of Spouses: Selected Problems of Theory and Law Enforcement Practice

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of theoretical and practical issues of dividing the common debts of spouses. During the study, the authors examined approaches to defining the concept of “common debts of spouses” and analyzed legal norms on the division of common debts of spouses. Judicial practice (of courts of general jurisdiction and arbitration courts) has been studied to identify problems that arise in judicial practice when considering cases of division of property. Based on the results of the work, the authors proposed solutions to problems arising in judicial practice when considering disputes about the division of property, which consist in the need to make changes to family and civil legislation.
