My ex granted me immunity from debt on mortgage in our divorce decree, but then filed bankruptcy. The bank has placed a judgement after me now for the debt.
If your divorce agreement required her to be fully responsible for a second mortgage that had your name on it, but then filed for bankruptcy, he/she is required to indemnify you as a result of any judgment. You may need to bring a motion in order to enforce the terms of the divorce agreement.
