Depends on the following: What was the judgment in question? Were you legally married/seperated/divorced/single at the time in question? Was the return filed jointly or seperately? I am afraid I cannot offer any other info without specifics.
The person who is designated as the Administrator or Executor of his estate is the one who has the right to file this return and to negotiate any refund check if one is due. The return must be filed and the type of return is a Decedents Return. Only the person authorized in the will and by the local Probate or Magistrate Court is able to take care of these matters.
If you Efile and elect to have your return direct deposited then you could have your return in as little as 8-14 days. If you file a paper return and wait for a check to be mailed to you then it will take a Minimum of 6-8 weeks or longer.

Generally, if the car is jointly owned, a creditor may be able to go after the co-owner's interest in the vehicle.

It depends on what is owed. For instance if you owe back child support they will take what is owed in arrears out of your federal return.

It is called an injured spouse claim.
If you were no longer married at the end of the day on December 31th, you cannot file a joint return. The other spouse should simply file a legitimate return for themselves and not worry about what their ex-spouse did. If you try to e-file, it will probably be rejected, but you should then file on paper. The first step is to file your own return, nothing can be done until you do that. Of course, the IRS will notice the discrepancy at that point and send you a letter. Respond to the letter with the proper documentation showing that you were divorced and your spouse should not have filed a joint return. It will take some time to settle and your refund (if you are due one) will be delayed for months.

Yes on a Jointly filed return they can. Everyone that signs a tax return is individually and severally responsible for ANY tax due on the return. Having said that there IS a work-around. You have to prepare and submit an Injured Spouse form along with the jointly filed tax return. Then you can get any portion of the refund that would have generated for you if her deficiency was not taken into account.
They do this in certain circumstances. They will if you file 1040EZ which is the easiest one. If you take one of their programs they will file free for you and then take their money at the end when the return comes back.
