In may depend on what the final judgment for divorce says about it.

I was awarded the home in the divorce decree and am supposed to have his name taken off within 3 years. I am in the process of refinancing and found several leins.

Sounds to me like your "stuck." If the liens are significant, you should check with a lawyer about re-opening the case. Generally, if you're married his debt is your debt and vice versa.

It depends what state you are in.

If you have a lien on your home and you lose your home do you still have to pay?

Yes. The lien is simply a method by which a debt is secured. If the lien is on the house and the house is lost, the only thing the creditor loses is the security for the debt. The debt remains payable. If a person buys a house and borrows $100,000 to help pay for it, that person signs a promissory note to establish the debt and signs a mortgage to establish the bank's lien on the house as security for the debt. If the house burns down and there is no fire insurance, the bank has lost the security for the debt but it has not lost the debt. The mortgage (security) is useless because there is no house, but the promissory note (debt) remains in effect.
