Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
My 3 siblings & I are co-owners of the house my parent's left us. If one sibling gets into financial trouble can we be in jepardy of losing the house (if it isn't used as collateral) or someone (other than us) force the sale of the house?

Yes, you are at risk. Any judgment against that person will become a lien on the home, and a lienholder could compel a sale.
