Re: default of compromise agreement
A complaint seeking specific performance would need to be filed with the Probate & Family Court where the original agreement was entered. The judge would review the agreement and order the non-performing party to perform if that party is able to perform. Has the non-performing party given any reason why they have not performed? I would recommend you hire an attorney to handle this matter to ensure your interests are properly protected.
