I assume you are saying that one party quit claimed a half interest in the home to the other. Depending on the pre-nup, assets and liabilities will be divided as per the pre-nup. However, if property was purchased or transferred outside the parameters set by the pre-nup the court has to consider that. Without knowing the details of the prenup, what will be done with the house is unclear. Get a lawyer.
