Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia

What can I do if my ex-wife put our son's medical bills solely in my name without my consent. According to the court order, all uncovered medical bills should be split 50/50. I was not present at the doctor visit and she listed them in my name solely. I would like to know what charges I can file civil/criminal and how to go about it. Also, we had an order that I would sign over the title of a car to her when she signed a form for the taxes. She informed me that she had already sold the car while I still had possession of the title. What can be done about this.

You need to a lawyer to resolve these issues with your ex-wife, if you don't already have one. You can forget about criminal "charges" for the medical bills, and going down that road is not usually productive or healthy for the parents or children (even if you had a claim).

You need a lawyer, and probably will end up filing a contempt case (not a criminal one). If you did not sign for the medical bills, your lawyer can probably make those go away, assuming you didn't wait too long to complain.
