    Default Foreclosure of Home

    If you let the bank foreclose to avoid paying your wife her share of the equity in the home, the court may order you to pay that amount anyway. If the bank sells the home for less than the value of its mortgage, it can ordinarily go after you for any shortfall (along with the cost of the sale).

    What I said before means "yes". But if putting it into the form of a single word makes it more plain, there you go.
