An incident in Tonglu County, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, in which a woman was impersonated by her husband, triggered a heated discussion among netizens. They all expressed deep sympathy for the woman's experience. The incident was that the woman came to the procuratorate for help with a notice of execution from the court. From the contents of the notice, we can know that the woman's husband borrowed millions from other places and failed to return them in time. The lender provided the court with a notice of enforcement. Because this notice has the woman's signature, and the husband and wife's property should be executed, the woman said that she did not know about it. After all these years of marriage, her husband has been working outside, while she has been working at home to take care of the children. Although she is a husband and wife, because she has been separated, she seldom meets, communicates rarely at ordinary times, and is financially independent. The woman said that she did not understand the matter of becoming a borrower. Finally, after appraisal by relevant departments, it was found that the signature in the power of attorney was not the signature of the lady herself, but the signature of the husband as an impostor. The random procuratorate said that the wife will not be liable for repayment, and the husband will be fined 20,000 yuan.
In this case, the man signed on behalf of his wife and asked her to bear the debt. Although this behavior does not touch the law, it should be punished, and he will also face fines from relevant departments. According to the relevant departments, in a family marriage relationship, if the husband and wife are valid, but the related civil acts, such as large loans, are carried out outside the daily needs of the family, they should be borne by both husband and wife. However, if it does not belong to the debt of husband and wife, such as this kind of false signature, and the lender cannot prove that the signature is signed by both husband and wife, and they live and operate together, they do not need to bear the debt.
