What is the name of your state? MD - Divorce filed and granted in PA
In our marital separation agreement, we agreed to each split equally the purchase price of a vehicle for our daughter when she turned 16. There was a cap of 11K. The agreement was that we each could find our own method of financing. I paid for the car in full through personal funding 10K. I've asked the ex for his portion and he refuses to pay. I've filed a small claims suit to recover. Any reason why this would not hold up?
His defense and anticipated countersuit is this: we split personal debts equally and one of the debts (credit card) that was jointly held was on my obligation list. I, since, have file ch. 7 and have had my debts discharged. Our agreement also indicated that we waived our right to sue, past, present and future for the debts listed as well as al the hold harmless lingo. He took a loan to pay that credit card - due to his credit being dinged and them coming to him for the money. Since he chose to pay this off, can he recover the 1,500 on the countersuit?
