## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Family Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | For each statement line the lawyer marks, or each line at or above the amount the lawyer sets, record the date, amount, description as printed, and statement page. Sort by date. Do not label a line as community, separate, gift or reimbursement. |
| What the lawyer must review | Family Code § 760 provides that, except as otherwise provided by statute, all real or personal property wherever situated acquired by a married person during the marriage while domiciled in California is community property. Section 2100 requires those assets and liabilities to be disclosed whatever their character. You decide how a line is characterised and whether the record supports a tracing. The table is the transaction record. It does not itself trace an asset. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: For each statement line the lawyer marks, or each line at or above the amount the lawyer sets, record the date, amount, description as printed, and statement page. Sort by date. Do not label a line as community, separate, gift or reimbursement.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Tracing rules differ by state. Do not add a tracing label the statute on this page does not supply.
- Set the dollar threshold yourself. Lines under it stay out of the table only because you set that cut-off.
