When two people sign a note as co-borrowers they are each responsible for payment of the outstanding debt. If one doesn't pay then the other will be responsible for the entire balance.

Can a person's name be removed from a loan as coborrower if he wins a civil lawsuit?

It depends on the circumstances. That depends on whether the bank was a party to the lawsuit. If the court ruled the loan document was a forgery it may be binding on the bank. If you co-signed a loan and sued the other borrower regarding the payments, the bank isn't obligated to take your name off as co-signer. You would need to negotiate with the bank.


How do you be on deed without being coborrower?

The deed is the document that names the owner(s) of the property. The mortgage is the instrument that pledges the property as security in case a loan (note) for the property is not repaid. The mortgage that we get to buy or refinance a house is comprised a note and the pledge of security for that note. Therefore the mortgagor (the bank) wants all people that own the property to pledge it as security for the note. If you own a house with a mortgage and note on it, and then add someone to title (deed) you may have broken the terms of the mortgage and given the lender the right to foreclose. You have invoked the alienation clause in the mortgage contract which requires that the note be paid off prior to any transfer of title. So, you would not have to be a co-borrower (i.e. on the note), but you would most likely have to be on the mortgage (pledging the property to secure the note) if you are listed on the deed as an owner of the property.
