No, because, being a tenant, he don't have any kind of rights to take loan on keeping this property as security or guarantee, and if doing so without the knowledge of the right owner, then the party is ultimately liable to the courts of law.

Can your spouses debtors sue you?
This totally depends on which state you live in. You need to check on the "dower rights" in your state. "Dower Right" refers to an interest in real estate established by state law that is intended to protect a non-title holding spouse.In several states, this means that the married partner even though he/she may not be on the deed still co-owns the property simply because of the marriage. In other words, one person can not sell or do any mortgage transactions without the other's signature. If I am reading this correctly,in your respect,the creditor is going after the property as a means of getting paid sinceshe technically owns this property too. It depends upon how the property is titled, if the married couple lives in a community property state, and the status of the debt owed (sole incurred before marriage, sole incurred after marriage or jointly incurred during the marriage). Community property states are the only states that allow joint ownership rights without the property title bearing all owner's names including married couples. The wording of the title is equally important if the state does not have applicable default laws; (TIC, JT, TBE, JTWRS and so forth)
