§ 3672. Consent of both spouses

Notwithstanding the provisions of § 284 of this title, neither of the two spouses may donate, alienate or bind for a consideration the personal or real property of the community property without the written consent of the other spouse, excepting things for personal or family use in accordance with the social or economic standing of both spouses.

Any disposal or administration act made with respect to said property by either of the spouses in violation of this and any other section of this title shall not affect the other spouse or his heirs.

The spouse engaged in commerce, industry or a profession may, for good cause, acquire or dispose of the personal property used for such purposes without the consent of the other spouse. Said spouse shall, however, be liable for the damages he or she may cause by said acts to the community property. This action shall be exercised exclusively at the time of the dissolution of the community property.
