Answer:
Obligation of husband and wife is provided in Okl. St.§201. It reads:
“Husband and wife contract towards each other obligations of mutual respect, fidelity and support.”
Okl. St. §202 states the duty to support by husband and wife. It states:
“The husband must support himself and his wife out of the community property or out of his separate property or by his labor. The wife must support the husband when he has not deserted her out of the community property or out of her separate property when he has no community or separate property and he is unable from infirmity to support himself.”
