Equality in marriage and family relations 1994, para. 31 | Aug 19, 2019 | Paragraph | Even when these legal rights are vested in women, and the courts enforce them, property owned by a woman during marriage or on divorce may be managed by a man. In many States, including those where there is a community-property regime, there is no legal requirement that a woman be consulted when property owned by the parties during marriage or de facto relationship is sold or otherwise disposed of. This limits the woman's ability to control disposition of the property or the income derived from it. | Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women | General Comment / Recommendation |
