Husband's debts including his own mother's maintenance Husband's debts including his own mother's maintenance

Being a wife, am I responsible for my husband's debts.
Most important of all is the maintenance amount that he is liable to pay to his mother every month as per court's judgement.

A.Hello,
You are not responsible for someone else's debt. When someone dies with an unpaid debt, if the debt needs to be paid, it should be paid from any money or property they left behind according to state law. This is often called their estate

A.Dear Madam,
It is your husband’s duty to clear any arrears of maintenance to his mother. You are not liable to clear such maintenance arrears.
