A party may be able to recover property conveyed or transferred to the other party during the relationship but acquired before the relationship if the party who transferred the property: • Was innocent (that is, he or she did not know that the marriage was invalid at the time of the transfer) and • Can prove that transferred property was separately owned prior to the relationship.
