Legal Question in Family Law in California

CA Div Agreement re Home

In our Div settlement it states that my ex is supposed to pay the mortgage payment until the home is sold. He has not make a payment in over 3 months due to an injury. My credit is taking the hit. Can I have my name taken off the loan? He has also not paid any of the joint debt as stipulated, is there anything I can do about that?

Re: CA Div Agreement re Home

You can take your ex to court but if his non payment is due to him not working due to injury that will probably not get you any satisfaction. You should contact the mortgage company and the credit card companies and see if you can negotiate with them. You would need to explain your situation. I am sure most of them would rather work with you rather than have you file bankruptcy.
