Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Montana

Re: Child Support

Bankruptcy does not discharge child support. It could free up income from other debt to allow payment of child support. You cannot prevent a bankruptcy from being filed. There are limited circumstances where you could object to the discharge of a debt or discharge of the debtor for such things aa fraud or not being honest in disclosing assets. The code is automatic with regard to the non-dischargeablity of child support. Child support is a judgement entitlement. An abstract of the judgement or a copy of the court order of child support should be recorded. The debt becomes an enforcable lien on real estate.
