Re: Alimony
Unfortunately for you, they can file a garnishment action against your ex for the alimony and/or your bank for money deposited. You should consult with a local attorney. There may be ways to get around this.

The easiest way for a creditor to sieze alimony and disability is to garnishee your bank account.
If the bill is sizeable, you may be able to get rid of it with bankruptcy. We have a free worksheet at www.glenashman.com if you are considering that route.
