I live in Florida abut I am not a lawyer, but have been in asomewhat similar position some years, except that the situation was reversed. It had to do with money for a loan that was signed only by myself and my husband's name appeared nowhere as being a borrower If you are referring to money that is owed on a credit card or a loan that you have also signed when the credit card card card or loan was initially obtained, then, yes, you are responsible If the money is owed by your husband only and your name is not listed as being a borrower or you have not signed as also being responsible then, any monies that your husband owes can only be collected from your husband and you would not be responsible. It would be a good idea to call an attorney or search the internet for free legal advice. Many lawyers are willing to answer a simple question for no fee. Good luck to you.
