Thanks for responding, Ron! My alimony is modifiable. We had modified in 2012 when the monthly amount was significantly reduced. Modification with my cooperation was the only way he was able to obtain bankruptcy. Alimony is not dischargeable here either, so I agreed to the modification with his acknowledging to me that he owed the prior amount. Of course, he would not put that in writing. I would not waive the prior amount owed, but would deduct any amounts received over the new monthly base amount from that old balance. I've formulated a response to his petition, but just need to know whether I can include a motion to the court for an order directing him to pay or does it have to be a separate motion and then a hearing.
