Nope.
The bank doesn't care
what the court says. His name is on the note and, in their eyes, responsible for repayment. It ain't fair, but so much in life isn't.
Waaaay back when...when I divorced the
first Mrs. O'Rights, she had enough bad checks, written on our joint account, to fall just $15 short of a felony. She was ordered, by the court, in our divorce papers, to repay her bad checks. She never did. After 2 years of being unable to open a checking account, in my own name, I finally paid them off. It had gotten to the point where it just wasn't worth the principle of it anymore. I had to get on with my own life, and having the ability to open a checking account was part of that.
