My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: New Hampshire
My ex-husband and I had a loan for two jet skis. When we split, he had them re-possessed without my knowledge/permission. After they went to auction, the balance we owed was for over $10,000 and a lien was placed on our home for that amount. Since I had the better credit when we purchased these items, my name is first on the loan. We went to Superior Court on separate occasions with the bank and agreed upon a monthly amount for me to pay and monthly amount my ex would pay. In my final decree, my ex was court ordered to pay the balance himself. When I called the attorney for the bank, I told her what the orders were and she stated to me that even though he was ordered to pay, the Family Court does not supersede Superior Court so, if he did not continue to make payments, we would both end up back in court and then I could explain the family court orders to the Judge and he would make a final decision. A couple months went by and I called to ask the attorney what the status of the lien and payments were and she didn't return my call. I called again a few days later and left another message to which she had her assistant call me and say that "she's not at liberty to give me that information." I explained that I was court ordered to refinance my home into my name and that this lien directly affects my credit. She said she would have the attorney call me back. Two days later, the attorney called me back and said she could not give me that information so I e-mailed her a letter and copied my divorce attorney on it and she called me back to say she will speak to my attorney but could not speak to me. My question is, why am I not privy to this information when my name is first on the loan, it directly affects my credit and there is a lien on the home that I'm court ordered to re-finance and she can't give me that information? I no longer needed my attorney's services for this matter. I asked her to please send me a copy of the law or statute that states I'm not entitled to that information and haven't received a response yet. The only information she would give me was that if my ex did not continue to pay the monthly payments that I would be notified to appear in court again and that would be how I would know if he was making payments or not and to find out the balance. This doesn't seem right to me. I would understand if the loan were solely in his name but it's not. Any insight to this would be greatly appreciated.
