He did obtain the money. He bought 50 acres of land and built a house, bought a car, lots of furnishings, etc etc. I saw his investment company statements during discovery.

The fact that he has to pay taxes on the money has nothing to do with it. The amount in the property settlement is much less than that and he agreed to pay it and is now in contempt of a court order.

If it’s his inheritance and you had no shared money during marriage why are you entitled to it?

Are you exceptionally dim?

We can see why you are divorced. If it is inheritance, its greedy to demand a part of it as its not your family money.

Why are you doubling down on the dumb? Do you lack basic reading comprehension skills?

Thanks everyone.

I need to check to see if the agreement requires that breaching party pays for litigation to address such breach . I never should have signed this deal, I was a mess at the time due to games Ex was playing (and in retrospect should not be surprised that he would renege on legal commitments like this).

He doesn’t have the money. Millions to be inherited means nothing as he doesn’t not have that money.

Pretty sure the OP said he inherited the money after they separated so it seems unlikely he spent it all. Agree with the other PP that your settlement agreement likely contains an attorney fees provision to enforce the agreement so that's one option. A cheaper option would be to have DCSE enforce the child support amount.

Even if he had inherited it before they separated, she wouldn’t be entitled to a dime.

PP here and that's not true in all states by the way, there are a few that consider it as part of equitable distribution. As a broader point though OP only said she was entitled to some assets per her settlement agreement,such assets may or may not have been from the inherited monies but the inherited funds are subject to attachment to satisfy the judgment just like any other monies.

OP here - I never asserted a right to his inheritance.

The inheritance is only relevant to his ability to repay the contractual debt on marital property. We had a long grueling mediation that resulted in the marital agreement. The agreement was signed and the court integrated it into a judgment. He owes the money but refuses to pay it.

I’m not going to beat around the bush here, you may one of the dumbest posters to ever grace the pages of DCUM. The dumbest of the dumb.

You’ve had so many chances to think about the statements you are making and course correct and yet you keep coming back and doubling down.

Everything if just flying right over your head. Proof that stupid people honestly have no idea that they are stupid.

Mine owes me quite a bit of money. Since getting a judgment and filing a lien against his house, I've been approached by a few groups who want to purchase the judgment from me at a discount. I intend to sell it to them once our youngest child is 18 and in college.

Did he pay any installments? Or did he never start paying them?

How many months was he to pay installments for. Is there a reason it was done as monthly installments vs lump sum or % of house etc.
