How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that “property subject to a tenancy by the en-tireties is liable for the spouses’ joint debts” and, upon the death of one spouse, “for the individual debts of the surviving co-tenant,” but “is unreachable by creditors of one but not of both of the tenants”
• holding that “property subject to a tenancy by the entireties is liable for the spouses’ joint debts” and, upon the death of one spouse, “for the individual debts of the surviving co-tenant,” but “is unreachable by creditors of one but not of both of the tenants”
• finding that unilateral withdrawal of funds from a joint bank account does not defeat a tenancy by the entireties estate because each spouse acts as the other's agent and consents in advance to each other's withdrawal
• referring to “an inability of one spouse to alienate his interest,” and citing In re Wall’s Estate, 440 F.2d at 219
