Complaint:
My complaint or area of concern involves my mortgage not my lender. I really don ' know who else to tell my story as I 've been fighting this battle for the past five years. My issues particularly lie with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Court in XXXX, SC. I filed for a divorce in XXXX my ex husband was court order to maintain mortgage payments. That order was never obeyed. He emptied the XXXX account which was under a restraining order and never paid the mortgage. Nearly 1 1/2 years went by, XXXX attorneys and XXXX contempt of court order and still no relief. I was a stay at home mother for nearly 17 years ; me and my XXXX children were still residing in the home. My husband voluntarily left his employment as a XXXX ( earning {$86000.00} ) applied for unemployment and food stamps. Took me to Court ( XXXX ) for a reduction in spousal & child support. Two weeks later relocated gainfully employed as a XXXX again earning a higher salary ( {$91000.00} ). During that time of nearly 4 months not a dime of spousal, child support or mortgage payments. I did an engine search and found out he was employed in XXXX. I borrowed more money from friends & family hired a XXXX attorney. The XXXX Contempt hearing XXXX XXXX XXXX my husband was found to be in willful contempt on multiple counts, namely the mortgage. A few weeks later to escape responsibility ( repayment of mortgage at that time it was in the arrears of more than {$30000.00} ) and penalty ( 30 days in jail ) he filed Chapter XXXX in XXXX, XXXX During the Final hearing process he converted to a Chapter XXXX claiming our XXXX minor children as part of his household. He also lied as respects to what he was paying in spousal & child support. Under our lenders request I did have his name removed from the deed early XXXX. I did get relief from Federal Court lifting the " stay '' to complete the divorce. At the time of the Final Hearing I was still unemployed however the Court awarded me the martial home and my now ex relief from mortgage responsibility. Placing the children in I in danger of becoming homeless. I applied multiple times for HAMP & NACCA programs. Until finally reaching out to CFPB which I most grateful and very happy to say assisted with the process between me and the lender. My issue is now my ex husband is attempting to have his name removed from the FHA mortgage/loan. I 've been paying the mortgage on time, I ca n't assume the loan on my own. My children and I have no where to go because of he non compliance with previous orders not paying the mortgage completely wrecked my credit & ability to rent in a safe decent area. Additionally, at the time our XXXX yr. old son XXXX XXXX in a 4 month time frame. I suggested relocating back home near family. The XXXX recommendation was no more major life changes XXXX. The Family Court system interest does n't appear to be in he best welfare for children and mothers. I am afraid the Court will order side with my ex and force me to take his name off the FHA loan. Please HELP!!!
