Heading: The post-separation relationship

Text: After the superior court entered the decree of legal separation in 1991, the Glasens remained married and reconciled a few months later. Their sexual relationship resumed, and their marital relations continued as they had before the separation. For the next two years Gail lived in the Malibu home while Danny commuted from Cordova to visit. Then Gail moved back to Cordova with the children to be with Danny and enroll Drake in school. The Glasens remained in Cordova together for two more years. During this entire periodfrom 1991 through 1996Danny and Gail remained a financial and marital unit. They filed joint tax returns, maintained joint credit cards, and also kept a joint bank account. Moreover, Danny voluntarily supported Gail and the children by wiring them money, paying bills, and depositing money in the joint banking account. The Malibu home remained in joint title. In January 1996 Gail and the children moved to Juneau so that Gail could pursue her education. But even then, she returned to Cordova during the summer with the children to be with Danny. In the spring of 1997 Danny and Gail decided to move to Cambria, California, and buy a home there. They flew to California together to look for real estate and business opportunities. Before they could make the move, however, Danny and Gail had an argument that precipitated the present divorce action. Danny filed for divorce in July 1997 and sought to enforce the 1991 separation agreement.
