What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I was divorced some years ago. During the last few years of our marraige, we acquired quite a few debts. Some were personal, some commercial. In the divorce decree, all the debts were to be divided evenly.
However, my ex has not paid any money toward the debts. I have not heard from him in quite some time. When I did last contact him, he made it clear that he had no intention of paying the debts.
I have been paying them off slowly to protect my credit. What options do I have for having him honor his portion of the debts? Would that be contemt of court?
