Divorce is not only emotional but also sensitive in terms of property division. When real estate is transferred to third parties without consent or in bad faith, spouses may need to file a title annulment and registration lawsuit. This claim seeks to cancel the wrongful transfer and restore the property to the rightful owner.
Such lawsuits arise after or during divorce when, in the liquidation of the marital property regime, one spouse transfers real estate without the other’s consent or to conceal assets. The purpose is to cancel the transaction and restore the title to its rightful state.
These lawsuits are often connected to property regime liquidation cases. Depending on the situation, claims may be filed together in one case or separately. The strategy depends on evidence management and timing.
