Loans

We are in the state of HI, my sister in law took out a loan that was co signed by her boyfriend. The loan was to pay off debt that he had to pay off. There were checks that were cut to pay off these bills directly from the loan account. They had a verbal agreement that he would pay off the amount that was borrowed for his bills. He has failed to pay any amount. Does my sister in law have a legal right to demand the money be repaid? The ex boyfriend is also in the military so is there a legal responsibilty on his part to pay back this money?

My response:

You posted yours to the "Accident" law board. Try the Contracts law board.

Thanks.
