I want to file a lawsuit against my ex-husband for failing to refinance our jointly owned home in New Jersey as per our divorce decree, which has led to the bank coming after me for payments. I need his approval for a short sale, but he won't agree. What legal actions can I take?

I received a letter from the IRS stating I owe more money due to a 1099C form I did not include, which was related to a car repossession from 10 years ago. My wife had the car repossessed by VW, and it was reported stolen as VW did not notify her of the repossession. Now, VW filed this form with the IRS for the original loan amount without subtracting any sales amount. The loan default occurred before her divorce was finalized and before we were married. My wife's ex-husband was made co-responsible for the loan and insurance by the divorce decree. What legal actions can I take against VW, and should I dispute the IRS form while pursuing VW?

I have a notice of being served for an $800 debt, but I had paid $916.65, with the last $200 to be settled. The company I made payments to dissolved and reported that all but $200 of the original debt was paid. Now, the debt is back to $800, and I'm being served. The parent company won't provide payment history without a subpoena. What can I do?

I am fighting with my previous rental company who is trying to charge me for carpet cleaning, wall repair, and painting after move-out, despite these issues not being addressed before I moved in. Most of the damage was already present. I am in Cabarrus County, NC, and have the initial walk-through pictures, although they are not very clear when enlarged. I need to resolve this quickly as it affects my ability to rent a new place. What should I do?

I have a property that I cancelled a contract for, and a friend wants to purchase it. Can I start the financing process with my current bank now, even though the contract cancellation is effective until March 6th, and set the closing date to the end of March without breaking any laws or rules?
