If i'm officially divorced and later my ex-is in hospital seriously ill, would I be responsible to pay med c?

we are separated for 18 months, divorced for 2 months, and now she is in the hospital and hers parents wants me to pay the medical bill because she no longer has insurance. hers parents are suing me.If i'm officially divorced and later my ex-is in hospital seriously ill, would I be responsible to pay med c?
Not unless the divorce ordered you to pay for her medical insurance. If it did, then yes you're required. If the divorce decree says nothing about you paying it and you are in fact LEGALLY divorced, not just separated, then they can try to sue you but won't get very far at all. Very sad situation....If i'm officially divorced and later my ex-is in hospital seriously ill, would I be responsible to pay med c?
Divorced is divorced. As long as her illness didn't begin while you were still married- I don't think they have a case against you. But I am not a lawyer so maybe you`d feel better if you asked one.


Personally- I think it is pretty nasty of her parents to ask you to pay anything anymore concerning your ex wife. Don't they know what ';divorce'; means? Why should you be responsible for her now?


My father had a godchild. He always paid for him. Then my father died and the father of this godchild said- as if totally natural- when I was going to pay the next bill of the godchild? I said ';Huh?'; It wasn't MY godchild- and my father is dead.


They will try. You know? They will always TRY. If nothing else- then they might try to manipulate you with your guilt. Do you feel guilty about the divorce? Even if so- one has nothing to do with the other. They are 2 separate issues.
They are crapping in the wind, unless you had it stated in your divorce decree that you would carry insurance on her for a period of time. Now if her ailment was prior to your divorce being final, she still might be able to file on your insurance, IF you had insurance, but, no they can not force you to pay her medical bills. You could sue them just as well....not to bright are they!!!!
Unless there is some strange agreement in the divorce papers, you are divorced and she is on her own. Her parents have no ground to stand on. I am not sure if they are actually suing you, or threatening to, but you should be in the clear.
if the divorce is final then its not your responsibilty. Why wont her parents pay it? Shes outta your house/marriage...outta your hands. However if you are able to pay it....then i would just because its the nice thing to do.
You aren't responsible as long as you are officially divorced (not just divorced in your head). If the judge has signed the final divorce decree you are divorced and not responsible for her debts.
That sounds awful, but it's not your responsibility. You are divorced, and it's her responsibility to make sure she has insurance. Why can't her parents pay it?
You're divorced. Unless your divorce decree states that you will continue to pay her medical bills, you are not responsible.
You are divorced. It is finished. She will need to come up with state medical care, or something similar. Speak to your lawyer.
Normally no. If she was ill while you were still married you might be responsible though. If they're suing there may be some reason. Get a good attorney.
no because you are no longer her spouse and you are just an ex-husband if she has a current husband them she has to pay for it but you just live your life and go on without her but check to see if she's alright
You have no obligation to pay for her medical bills, you are divorced.
no, it is not your responsibility, it is her responsibility to take care of herself, like other single people do.
Let them sue you. If divorce was final before she was in the hospital, it's not your problem!
Her parents are not going to get a dime. Good luck.
Nope. It's not your responsibility in the least.
No you are not responsible..Once you divorced you've cut those ties with her..Don't give in...
