marital debt
I am going through a divorce. in short I moved out of tthe house 2 1/2 years ago. During that time my soon to be ex re-financed the house. I am not on the note but the mortgage co. required that I sign the mortgage. I then quit claimed all rights to the property to him. Things have changed for him financially and he is considering selling the house, however it is financed for more then it is worth. He is stating that he waants me to be responsible for 1/2 of the debt. Can I be held responsible and if so Can I file bankruptcy to have it discharged?

Mortgage awarded to wife
Ten years ago, wife ordered by divorce decree to ”pay and assume” mortgage loan. Wife refuses to refinance and take husband’s name off loan. She still lives in home and is making payments. Because loan is still reflected on husband’s credit, can’t purchase home of his own. Husband wants off loan so he can buy a home. Is there a legal way to force wife to refinance? What rights does husband have over the loan? He has not signed a quit claim deed to the property.
