Question

Hello, I am divorced and owe my x-husband money that is in the divorce decree. I had to file a bankrupcy and am unable to pay him. My x-husband filed a motion for contempt and a hearing is set. I cannot afford any more costly attorney fees and do not want to use my divorce attorney again. Please advice me on what steps I should take. Thank You , Angela

Answer

Thank you for contacting our JA team for guidance.

If your bankrupcty is still pending, you should provide a notice of it with the court where your ex has filed the motion for contempt. The bankruptcy automatically stays such litigation.


Please let me know if you need additional information.

 

Best regards,

TK
