I am in MA. I owe my ex-husband a settlement on my house. It is due in 2 years. I will not be able to pay it in full. Is it possible to get the terms changed?
Answer
No, you generally cannot change property division terms. You can try to work something out with him outside of court to prevent him from filing a complaint for contempt against you.
Answer
Thank you for your question.
I agree with the previous author that there is nothing you can do unilaterally to change the terms of your divorce agreement. You may be able to work something out voluntarily with the other party. It may be that you need more time, and it may be that a more creative solution is needed. If you do nothing, the other party will likely file a complaint for contempt and you will be defending yourself to a judge in court. Start working on a solution now.
