What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oklahoma
I need to see where everyone think's I stand. I asked for a divorce from my ex in June, 2006. We had to continue to live together until the house we lived in sold. In August, 2006 he wanted to get his name off my car. The only way to do that was to refinance in my name only. I couldn't get the loan without money down. I told him I didn't have 2500+ to do so at that time. We also had a signature loan that we were going to have to keep both names on. I told him oh well we have to keep our name on the car as well as the loan. A few days later he had asked his mom for 2600 to get his name off. She mailed him a cashiers check in his name only, he signed and deposited it in our joint checking acct. He worked for a dealership and tried to get it done with them. They took all my information and gave it to a bank. He came home and told me it was approved with 2500 down and he had borrowed it from his mom. I told him I didn't want the money from her. Our divorce was at this point getting really nasty. I did go forward with the refinance. Thoughout our court hearings, he insisted I pay 1/2 of the 2600 back. I refused telling him I did ask for it, I made no agreement to pay it back and the check was made out to him.. At time of divorce settlement (Sept 2007), his atty sent my atty a letter stating that he waived any repayment of the 1300 (my half) to his parents. His mom is unaware of this letter and he forgot about it. She started harrasing him to get the money from me. Between the two of them they intimidated me to email her that I was going to pay $50 a month until my half (1300 was paid).. My atty told me don't send anything. She started emailing me harrassing me again and I told her it wasn't my loan and I'm not paying it back. In Sept, 2008 I received a small claims notice where she is sueing me for the full 2600. It states on my lawsuit form she is sueing me for the down payment on my car. It states nowhere on there that it was for refinancing my car to get her sons name off just "down payment"..... What is your opinion and does anyone think I have a leg to stand on....
