In my divorce each one of us was awarded one of the vehicles. The car that is in her possession has a loan that is co-signed by me. She rarely pays her bill and is constantly 30 or 60 days late with the payment and was about a day away from it being repossessed. I would try to take the car back from her however with child support taking 55% of my pay I just can't afford it. What I would like to do is file a lawsuit against her to hold her financially responsible for killing my credit score. I took her to court to see if a judge could put a time limit on refinancing but all he told her to do is "try" because a judge can't really force somebody to refinance a car. I'm trying to get a new car myself but because of this my credit is shot and can't get a loan for a phone call let alone a car. I feel like she should have to pay me what it would take to get out of the vehicle I have now and in to something new. If anybody has some advice for me I would appreciate it. If it doesn't sound possible or I just need to suck it up and let my credit be screwed for the next ten years I can accept that if there is nothing I can do but I appreciate all answers.
Thanks
Chris
 
You are still liable for the promissory notes you signed.

The creditors were not parties to your lawsuit.

I understand that but is it possible for me to get the car back (in court) and force her to pay me while I pay the car payment since she's neglecting it?
