extradotal property

Read a random definition: joint authors

A quick definition of extradotal property:

Extradotal property is a term used in civil law to describe a wife's property that she owns apart from her dowry. It can also refer to the portion of a wife's property over which she has complete control. In Louisiana, any property acquired by the wife that is not community is neither dotal nor extradotal; it is simply her separate property. This is different from dotal property, which is separate property that the wife brings to the marriage to assist the husband with the marriage expenses.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Extradotal property refers to the portion of a wife's property over which she has complete control, or any property that a wife owns apart from her dowry.

Example: In Louisiana, after January 1, 1980, all property acquired by the wife that is not community is neither dotal nor extradotal; it is simply her separate property, as has always been true of the husband. For instance, if a wife inherits a house from her parents, it would be considered her extradotal property.

Explanation: Extradotal property is any property that a wife owns apart from her dowry. This means that the wife has complete control over this property and can use it as she wishes. In Louisiana, any property acquired by the wife that is not community is considered her separate property, including extradotal property. For example, if a wife inherits a house from her parents, it is her separate property and not subject to division in a divorce settlement.

@Law-Shark: they didn't say we had to go? and if they are willing to buy rooms for a bunch of people. they sent me a res because I was over 50 miles away but I didn't even ask for one
nattyalley
16:42
@Law-Shark: also kind of rude for you to be speaking to me like that, the event started at 9am and I had to wakeup at 4 to drive in. i was tired and couldn't even check in until 4pm if I wanted to so I just drove back. it's unprofessional to offer it the night before and not the day after. they also didn't feed us actual food and we were there until 2pm.

The fact you didn't think a reservation in your name is something you need to be responsible for and cancel if you weren't going to show up to by sending a simple email is absolutely iresponsible.
nattyalley
16:43
I didn't make a reservation tho?

Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances
Law-Shark
16:44
Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.
nattyalley
16:45

Law-Shark
16:45

Law-Shark
16:45
You live and you learn
nattyalley
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
nattyalley
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
nattyalley
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
nattyalley
16:48
goof
ET025
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
nattyalley
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
ET025
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
bigfatsloth
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
nattyalley
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
nattyalley
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
nattyalley
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
ET025
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
