The question
I got a divorce about 1 year ago and as part of it the
credit cards were split up. It turns out the one my ex-
wife was assigned has not been paid on and as a result
I have started receiving calls from the collections.
All things being in normal-English I feel that I should
be off that credit card completely. I have included
below whathhink is relevant but if more information is
needed let me know!
The credit card was taken out with me as a co-signer.
The divorce decree states "Petitioner [her] shall sole
responsibility for the following unpaid debts: [Card
name here] and her student loans. Petitioner [her] is
to indemnify and hold Respondent [him] completely
blameless for these debts."
I don't speak legalize so if it is possible to get me
removed from any further credit hit on that and get the
collectors off my back. Thanks for any help!
