Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana

I live in Portage, Indiana. When my husband divorced his ex, they both signed an agreement stating when the house sold, which is no longer in her name, that she would receive a percentage of the sale price. My husband has had the house listed on Buy Owner and the house has not yet sold. His ex wife is suing him claiming he has not sold the house on purpose so she would not receive money. Is that legal for her to do?? How does one control whether their house sells or not. We can't force people to buy a home if they are not willing to pay the price and we are a family of 5 living there and the title is in my name and his.

It is u unclear but it reads as if you are saying that his ex-wife is seeking a contempt. Without seeing the decree and settlement agreement, I cannot tell you whether the claim is valid.
