If you filed a joint return with your former husband you are BOTH liable for the tax due. Even though a divorce court may order him to pay, that is not binding on the IRS. It may be possible for you to make an "Innocent Spouse" claim if you were not aware of his income. To do that, you need a good tax attorney.
I hope this helps!
