Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland
asset and debt allocation, obligation
we filed divorce paper in 2008 with an
agreement that we do not owe each
other anything, except one document:
I owe him ~$30k. But I did not sign
that document so it's not officially
recorded by the court. Since then, he
kept asking me to pay back.
My question is that whether I have
leagal obligation to pay him? When he
tried to push me for divorce,my
income was much lower than his and
there are debts from my house. Did he
have any obligation on my situation
instead asking me to pay him?

Re: asset and debt allocation, obligation
Since the case is in divorce court, that court will look at and hear evidence as to property division, who is responsible for debts, etc. The unsigned "agreement" isn't binding as such, but may be considered as evidence of an agreement by the court.
