Your questions doesn't make total sense, but presumably you are the defendant. If you lose, the judgment will be against you. Generally, community property can be siezed to satisfy a judgment against one spouse. Income that either spouse earns during a marriage is community property. That said, wages (neither yours nor his) can be garnished for debt, which the judgment against you will be. However, once either of you get a paycheck and cash it or deposit it, the money is then cash which is subject to collection proceedings. Generally, retirement accounts are exempt from collection actions, as is your homestead. Hope this helps.
