Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Minnesota
question on a spousal loan from a student loan
my question is my girlfriend was married back in 2003 and divorced in 2003 in Minnesota. Her husband at the time filed for a spousal loan for both of them in Minnesota on their student loans. He thought combining the two would be better. He left her in 2003 and now they are divorced. its' been 3 years and the State of Minnesota wants the money. i don't mind helping her, but is there anyway she can get out of that or just pay her share or does she have to pay the whole thing. He isn't going to budge and won't pay anything at all. is she stuck on this loan with him or can she get out and pay her half. she can file a forbearance, but he has to as well. what can she do in this situation?

Need to review the loan + divorce documents. She may be able to avoid partial liability. Call or e-mail for help.
