Re: behind on mortgage payments
You may have to take him to court seeking alimony as part of a divorce proceeding, if you think he has the resources and is just refusing to pay. If there are minor children involved, he should also be supporting them, and that could also be the subject of court action. I assume your husband is in bankruptcy since you mentioned a trustee. This doesn't prevent the mortgage company from seeking a lift-stay from the bankruptcy court so they can foreclose on the property. And if he
is defaulting on his discharge plan in bankruptcy, it's likely to be dismissed without discharge.
