When closing the sell of the home in the last minute I was asked by my husband's lawyer to sign a blank sheet of paper. My spouse was paying the mortgage prior to our marriage and only on the first 4 years since we got married.
Now going through a divorce (he filed the complaint) I wonder if it was him to have me signing a paper that he would use for him to save is assets in case of a divorce.
I feel ashamed that I signed this paper. But truly I thought he wouldn't do such thing to me and I trusted that it was normal for the closing of the selling of the house. I wonder if I am entitled to the equity of the house and he made me sign a paper that would put me aside from having rights to anything related to the house or other things. Duration of marriage (6 years).
So, my question is: is legal to ask a spouse to sign a blank paper in the selling of the house?
Thank you
