Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
Divorce
I got divorced over a year ago. In the divorce my ex got the house, but she had to refinance it in her name. There was an equity line of credit on the house that she had to pay off. When she refinanced the house the loan was paid off and the equity line was paid off. Due to my ignorance, I did not check to see if she closed the equity line of credit that was in both our names. A few months later she pulled out all the money on that line of credit. Now it shows that I have a loan out there. In the divorce I was not to be held liable for anything pertaining to that house, which was used to originally open this loan. She won't close it and open it in just her name. I have requested she do this, but she's has not. What can I do now to get this out of my name?

Your attorney should take this matter back in front of your divorce judge.

The family law court has continuing jurisdiction over the divorce. You probably need to file a motion. For more information, please contact me at (248)8513171.
