Can husband witness wife's signature as to her separate property

I have another question about proper witnesses - when the land is situated in Louisiana. On several occasions I've had husbands witness their wife's signature when the wife was dealing with her separate property (and the husband wasn't a party, just a witness to his wife's signature). I've also had the reverse of this where the wife witnesses the husband's signature when its the husband's separate property (and the wife is not a party, just a witness). Seems like this is a fairly common practice with landmen.

My question, is this pracice in these circumstances (separate property) perfectly OK or would it be better to have someone other than the spouse witness the signing party's signature??? Any comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

My wife says I have a good sixth sense because I don't have any of the other five ---
MINE, I don't have one.
Do you want one, I let her go cheap, you give me a rod & reel and a new tackle box, she is yours.I'll even throw in a owners manual with her.
No Thanks DCH, I will remain single till I croak. Besides if you really wanted to make a deal you would be offering me the rod and real.
TD,

I do have some rods & reels I can give you it would probably help clean out some closets. Anyway, I better keep my wife, we will have been married for 21 years this April 29th.

DISCLAIMER: Please understand that any wife jokes I make are purely intended for the fun of the audience, my wife has a good sense of humor too, and can defend and defame me as well as anyone. If you don't believe me, just come bowling in a couple weeks and you'll find out.
Trying to get out of the grease DCH?
TD,
I'm trying, but it might be too late lol.
I wear the pants in the family.
When she lets me.
OK - I am laughing at my mistake.

MOOT POINT.
Isn't a lot of the fighting in divorce cases over what is separate and what is community?
My wife and I have a daschund that has that very idea - i.e. if its in my mouth, its mine, if its yours, its mine, if its anyone's, its mine.
Amen Brother Jim.
They'll get you in Louisiana, you'll go from the penthouse to out-house in a minute.
lol Mr. K
I've had one for 21 years. I've been saving for a divorce lawyer for 20 years.
I will have enough money for one in 22 more years. I've seen murderers get off easier than me.
