If you were married at the date of service for a necessary bill and are found unable to pay and yet the spouse has the ability to pay then Yes the spouse can be held responsible.
No, Wisconsin will not garnish a spouses wages to satisfy a credit card debt. Credit cards do not generally seek garnishments unless the amount is very large.
Yes they can because its still under her name and ss number ect
A divorce decree cannot alter the rights of the original creditor. The court can decided who gets the asset, but the both spouses remain liabile to the creditor.
I believe so - When you get married you assume all the debts.
Military spouses can have medical marijuana in California, but they are not allowed to take it into any military facility or you and your spouse can get into trouble.
Yes, it does. A garnishment can occur only where the creditor has obtained a judgment against you in a court of law. After the judgment is entered, the creditor can garnish your bank account if it knows where you bank. There are some exceptions to this, in that bank account that is jointly owned by husband and wife cannot be garnished, unless the judgment is against both spouses. The second exception is where the funds in the account are traceable to Social Security benefits. For more answers to similar questions on PA laws, please visit my website at www.gregartim.com
Not by creditors. The exception to multiple wage garnishments are, child support, federal or state tax arrearages and in rare cases spousal maintenance. Therefore a creditor could garnish wages at the same time of garnishment by the aforementioned.
A creditor is unable to harass for any debt. They can face penalty for doing so. read the FDCPA, it has helped me understand a little better what is and is not permitted to be done by debt collectors. There may be a difference between creditors and debt collectors; check and see. Hope this helps
If both are contractually responsible or liable for the debt, then yes; and likely both will be. While neither SSI nor disability can be attached, as soon as the payment hits the bank, the creditor can garnish the account. Both the wife's wages and bank account can be garnished.
Certainly not- it would be illegal
No - the surviving spouse is not liable for the deceased person's bills !
YES, if you die, then the next of kin is responsible for your debt.
