Legal Question in Family Law in Utah

changing divorce decree

My ex wife lives in the house we bought while we were married. Though the house is only in my name. Our divorce decree states that she make the house payment with the child support money. She is now remarried and they all still live in the house. She is constantly late 2-3 months on the payment. Now my credit is trashed!! I am taking her to court to have the divorce decree changed to where she has 6 months to get the house refinanced and changed to her and her husbands name. and if not then i get to sell it. Her words to me were that ''she will stop making payments just in time for a short sale then get the equity and keep it just ot screw my credit even worse''. Im wondering if there is a good chance that a judge will change this to my favor?? Please let me know!! Desperate to know!

Re: changing divorce decree

It depends on the commissioner and judge, as well as the previously entered orders. Your chances improve if you present a cogent legal argument which contains legal references. You may call for a free consultation.
