This articles has some good information:

I'm a little confused as to which property you are referring to at
some points in your question, but it comes down to two main factors:

1. Did you, or she, give up this property in writing to the other? 
I'm thinking of either the time you "signed off and allowed her to
purchase" or when she "deeded it back to me".

"Separate property can also include anything that one spouse gives up
to the other spouse in writing."

2. Was the money used to purchase, make payments on, or improve the
property NOT "Community Money" (money earned by either one of them
from the beginning of the marriage until the date of separation).

I'm thinking specifically of the "first property" you sold to settle
the lawsuit.  If that was a property that you owned before your
marriage then you should be able to get that money back from her if it
is her "separate" property.

"For example, a husband may have put in the down payment for a house,
got married, and then paid off the mortgage with community property.
In this case, the husband would be reimbursed for the down payment if
he could prove that his separate funds were used to pay it."

Or if the funds that she used to purchase the property were earned
during your marriage.

Either way it looks like you need a lawyer.

Let me know if this answers your question sufficiently.  If you would
like additional information, please let me know specifically what
needs to be clarified.

Thanks!
