What to do if my ex got the motor home in our divorce 3 years ago but the paperwork shows 50/50 and now he has defaulted?
The bank wants $140,000 from me.We had verbal agreement he could keep motor home. He let some company rent it out. He won’t tell me or doesn’t know exactly where motor home is now. I was served with summons from bank giving 30 days for me to dispute. What is my best bet here? Can I dispute stating we had verbal agreement and possibly attain a motorized statement as such or is filing bankruptcy an option? I own my home and vehicles out right and raise 6 kids.

This all depends on what the family law judgment says. If the judgment says you share the motor home, then you are both responsible for payments. Did the order specify who would make payments? Did it require him to convert the loan into his name only (this is routine practice)?
You should find a copy of the family law judgment and contact a local attorney for help.
