Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

My ex-wife and I have been divorced for over 2 years. In the Final Decree, she was granted to live in the house and was given a deadline of May 14th, 2011 to refinance. She has failed to do so. She is also months behind paying the mortgage. The problem is my name is solely on the mortgage loan, and it's ruining my credit. The loan is almost in default and forcing a foreclosure. I pay her more than enough child support to cover the mortgage payment. I want to sale the house, but I was told that since both of our names are on the property deed, i can't. What legally can I do to sale my house?

Unless the divorce papers say you can you cannot. You can sue her for contempt. Discuss this with your divorce lawyer.
