Can you sue your ex spouse if in the divorce decree it says the other party is responsible for paying some bills and he has not done so yet?

Yes. * A lawsuit is possible but the terms of the divorce in most states are not legally binding when it pertains to joint debt. The judge may not allow the dissolution terms to be used as grounds for recovering the debt unless the ex-spouse has already incurred out of pocket expenses connected with those debts.

Divorce decrees are not binding on banks. If you signed for the line of credit the bank can hold you responsible for paying it.

That should have been incorporated into the divorce decree. You should calll the attorney who handled the divorce to see what your options are now.

If your ex is remarried is his new wife responsible for a child support order from a divorce decree?
No. Only the biological parents are responsible for the support of their minor children. I have a different answer: If the parent is being supported by his/her spouse then yes, the new spouse has to pay for child support. Some parents tried to get out of paying child support by not working and letting their new spouse support them but that is illegal. The house hold income is counted.
