Probably not. Where there is joint debt, all parties are liable for repayment. Especially if the residence is in a community property state. There could be grounds for a civil suit, if the agreement for repayment was made in writing or perhaps verbal, that was witnessed. That will not change the status of the CR, until the debt is paid.
