Child support debts are excepted from discharge. If you and the debtor disagree about the nature of the debt, you may, by commencing an adversary proceeding, paying the filing fee of $250, and filing an appropriate complaint, and serving it under the Bankruptcy Rules, ask the Court to determine whether your debt is nondischargeable. These matters are complex, so consulting an attorney is strongly recommended. See 11 U.S.C. 523(a)(5).
