Is there any way to amend a clause in a property settlement agreement from a divorce?

My ex-husband foreclosed on a motorhome that we owned together without telling me. They are now suing me for $18,000. I am trying to file bankruptcy but because the property settlement agreement says we can’t he can come back and sue me. My bankrupcy claim would be null and void. I was wondering if there was any way around this?

Thank you for the information about what is written in the agreement  But one would really need to read the agreement in while in order to let you know what your options are here.  If your ex husband did something that was in violation of the agreement then you need to sue him based upon same.  You can bring him is to the lawsuit by the bank or lender if there is a basis for same.  Good luck.
