arrears on mortgage and foreclosure on home

[natenfi]

What is the name of your state? Indiana
I was legally separated from my husband in July 2005 and in the Pendente Lite court judgments he was supposed to be responsible for the house payments (mortgage in joint names), bills, healthcare and child support. He paid for the first few months and then due to adverse financial circumstances he could no longer pay. The foreclosure sale on my home is in several weeks time and the bank says they will come after either/both of us for the arrears and shortfall. Are they legally able to come after me given there is pendente lite judgments to say that my estranged husband is responsible for the mortgage payments and not me. I am a stay at home mom of four young children and as the only breadwinner he always was responsible for all debts and financial responsibilities. I would appreciate any feedback regarding this matter. Thank you

First, the mortgage company is not bound by your court order. They can go after whoever is on the loan.
Secondly, you have been legally separated for almost 2 years, and you're STILL not working to support yourself? That's not responsible.
