Re: divorce and mortgage
File a Rule Nisi, Contempt, petition with the court and lay out the facts as from the agreement, what she has failed to do, and what relief you would like. Obviously it affects your credit and probably at this point you would be better off to sell the house and get what equity you can from it.
