Mixed Property

Mixed Property. (a) Except as provided otherwise in 8 CMC §§ 1827 and 1828, mixing marital property with property having any other classification reclassifies the other property to marital property unless the component of the mixed property which is not marital property can be traced. (b) Application by one spouse of substantial labor, effort, inventiveness, physical or intellectual skill, creativity, or managerial activity on individual property of the other spouse creates marital property attributable to that application if: (1) Reasonable compensation is not received for the application; and (2) Substantial appreciation of the individual property of the other spouse results from the application.
