Legal Question


Is a cash settlement I received from a wrongful death claim for my father, who died from exposure to asbestos, considered community property in the state of California? My spouse and I have been legally seperated for over 4 years and the lawsuit was filed after we were seperated.My father died 2 years ago. Also, will I have to pay taxes on the cash settlement?
