Description
Community Property in California 8th Edition Grace Ganz Blumberg
ISBN: 9781543804409
Authored by leading community property and family law expert Grace Ganz Blumberg, Community Property in California offers a comprehensive and engaging introduction to California’s unique community property system. This trusted casebook prepares students both for the California bar exam and for real-world practice in areas such as divorce, estate administration, and creditor-debtor relations.
The text thoughtfully integrates cases, notes, questions, and problems to promote student understanding and foster analytical skill development. Given that community property law is a focused area shaped by the interaction of state statutes and judicial decisions, the casebook is structured to help students navigate and master this interplay. Comparative references to the law of other states, the Uniform Marital Property Act, and the American Law Institute’s Principles of the Law of Family Dissolution provide valuable context for understanding how California’s approach fits within the broader landscape of family property law.
New to the Eighth Edition:
- In-depth analysis of the California Supreme Court’s landmark 2020 decision in In re Brace, which fundamentally reshaped longstanding principles of community property law and introduced new interpretive challenges.
- Critical commentary on the development and impact of the Pereira/Van Camp business apportionment doctrines.
- Expanded discussion of Family Code Section 4, emphasizing the retrospective application of current law to premarital agreements and other arrangements formed under prior statutes.
Key Features for Professors and Students:
- Thought-provoking problems and questions designed to spark discussion and deepen understanding.
- Robust preparation for the community property essay portion of the California bar exam.
- Clear, accessible writing that makes the material enjoyable and engaging for students.
- Practical focus on lawyering skills, with an emphasis on real-world problem solving and legal analysis.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
