I signed a settlement agreement which requires me to paychild support and it was incorporated in and survived my judgment of divorce. What can I do if I can no longer afford to pay?
Where a settlement agreement is incorporated in a judgment of divorce and continues to exist as a separate agreement after the divorce judgment is made, the Court cannot reallocate the child support obligations between the parents if the agreement is fair, unless there is an unanticipated and permanent change in circumstances resulting in a showing of decreased financial ability.
