While many states have a provision for legal separation, Texas does not have such a provision.

In states where legal separation occurs, spouses often choose this provision to protect themselves if they are considering a divorce. This protection includes a protection against being responsible for the debts incurred by the other spouse while the divorce is being considered.

Because such a provision is not available in Texas, many spouses who are afraid of being responsible for their spouses future debts may want to consider filing for divorce as soon as possible.
