A lot depends on what exactly you signed (and/or gave up). I recommend taking a copy of the paperwork you signed to a child custody or family lawyer so you can have a more specific conversation as to the best way for you to achieve what you desire. Good luck.
What can I do about it?

Just because he is not paying on the house note does not remove him from ownership. What did the Divorce Decree say about the house and the mortgage? Outside of enforcing the decree, foreclosure may be be imminent as a refinance is doubtful. A Ch13 BR might help.

My mother, two years before deceasing, made an act of donation of a rental property belonging to her and my father to my niece without my father signature as required by Art 2353. My father deceased in 2019, today this property is in his name and my niece's name. Is this act of donation valid?

Also, it should be noted that donation, if proper, would be donated subject to any and all encumbrances which... View More
