FL-142: Schedule of Assets and Debts in a California property case

Where it fits in the property workflow

This is the principal ledger the Community Property workspace composes, reads, foots and carries into reconciliation and division.

Always open the official California Courts page before use. It provides the current revision, current download and any translations or instructions; this guide intentionally does not host a copy that can become stale.

Prepare before touching the form

• Answer every applicable category, including an affirmative none
• Use a description that matches the supporting record
• Record value and debt dates and retain each source
• Compute line 18 and line 26 from the rows

The handoff to the next document

Record what form FL-142 proves, what it merely reports, and the source documents behind its financial statements. The same asset, debt, date and amount should not acquire a new identity simply because it crosses from an intake schedule to a pleading, proof, attachment or judgment package.

Boundary to keep visible

FL-142 inventories property. It does not adjudicate characterization, make a division or implement transfers.
