Re: Lien and Wage Execution Order

You should provide the credit card company a copy of the divorce decree/property settlement. The property settlement is legally binding, however, you may have to go to court to enforce this. I would consider suing both the credit card company and your ex husband. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to call me at 845-362-0387.

Re: Lien and Wage Execution Order

You may want to return to the Court that had jurisdiction over your divorce and request an Order requiring your ex to pay the credit card debt, in spite of his discharge. I was involved in a case that went to the Appellate Division on this very issue. In that case, the Judge required the husband (who was trying to discharge the debt) to pay more alimony. The increased alimony was exactly the amount of the credit card debt. Keep in mind that this advice is based purely on the little bit of information that you have given to me. There may be other factors that would change my opinion. Further, no one can rely on advice from an attorney who has not been retained. Since it appears that you have not retained an attorney, before you take any further action, you should contact an attorney (either me or someone else) to discuss your matter in more detail. Only then will you be able to rely on the advice. I will be happy to assist you. However, you need to call me at 856-546-8010. If you mention LawGuru, there will be no charge for your first consultation. Good luck! Rob Gleaner
