A: Anything you acquired during the marriage is considered marital property. It doesn't sound like you can reach agreement with your spouse for you to keep that mobile home. Even if the mobile home is in your name, Maryland considers the home as titled tenants by the entirety. Depending on the argument you present, the judge could require a sale of the home and you and your spouse divide the proceeds. I suggest you seek legal representation.
