Do I have any responsibility toward my x's debt (incurred after the split) four years after our split?
 
I would think not... unless it is a joint credit card or account and your name is on it.

I assume split as in your not (living) together and divorce finalized?
 
Well we had a joint bank account for the mortgage/house expenses, etc. I have not used the account since we split in 2003. He continued living in the house until last year when it was sold and we split the profits.... I assumed that closed all accounts. Apparently he continued using the account and it's now overdrawn. Am I liable? I've never been contacted about this before. I was informed that the account has been closed. I have no idea where the 'x' is now.
 
unfortunately if your name is still there then yes you are liable.......my current & I have been caught in similar circumstance and even with lrgal documents bank doesnt care.....you pay the debt then you have to take other party to civil court to get your money back
