Re: cant afford jeep given in divorce
You could be held in contempt of court if you don't comply with the divorce decree. However, there must be a "willful" noncompliance. It's questionable whether the fact you can't afford it and fail to make the payments is "willful."
My best suggestion is to sell it.
