husband and wife dissolved legal marriage in Texas, in 2005. Final order required real, residential community property (held by joint marital title) to be sold. H and W agreed later on that H would live in and retain the home and therefore be solely responsible for expenses, taxes, and mortgage payments. Parties forgot to execute Special Warranty Deed whereby W deeds entirely her interest to H. She is now willing to deed entirely her interest to him to solidify what they both tacitly agreed to since the final decree. Does the same court or another court with jurisdiction need to acquiesce to their actions with a 1) revised decree, 2) sworn affidavit or 3) any other civil filing?
Thank you

Without reading the decree, I'm only guessing that both of you might have violated the decree.
Violating the decree can result in many unintended consequences and some undesired outcomes.
One such outcome is if someone were to get hurt, injured, or killed on the property tomorrow.
You might find yourself being sued, and found liable for half of any award.
If taxes are in arrears, you might find the tax authorities coming after you for those taxes.
Again, these are only possible outcomes, as I don't have enough information to provide an exact answer.
Your situation is why its advisable to retain a real attorney to secure yoru divorce if property, children, or lots of loot is in play!
I suggest you visit the divorce attorney that you retained to do your divorce.
What, you were pro se?
No worries, see a Texas licensed attorney in the county where you reside for further advice.
Bon chance.
