Our divorce stated she received no equity in the house. I just had to refinance the house in my name to remove her. We have been officially divorced for 1 1/2 years. I made the house not for 3 years alone. She paid for 1/2 the house note in January and February of 2012. It was a long divorce obviously but that's a story of its own.... She had to sign a quit claim form at my closing. So now I have a escrow refund check of $4900 that has both our names on it from the old mortgage company..... According to bank, for me to deposit this check, she has to sign a form and the back of the check for me to deposit it. She now claims she is entitled to half. I don't think she is entitled to it. This is in the state if Georgia if that matters.
