Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Tennessee
Property after an divorce
My divorce states that my spouse and I have possession of the property that we are responsible for. After being divorced for 10 years a creditor phoned and stated that a truck that my spouse after the divorce in my name has auctioned off and they state that I need to pay the debt or else they will garnish my wages and place a lein on my house. Can this be done and what rights do I have, if any?

It will depend on the exact terms of your final decree and MDA, if any. You may have to go back in front of the judge to have him/her deal with the issue.
