Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Oregon
enforcing a legal agreement for payment of bills
i was involed in a domestic partnership and we incurred a great amount of debt. i retained a lawyer for drawing up paperwork stating how much of the credit card debt the other person would be responsible for. since december of 2002 she has failed to pay any on that debt and because i can only make the mininium payments the balance is getting more and not less because of the interest rates. how can i make her start paying her share of the debt?

Re: enforcing a legal agreement for payment of bills
There is no particular way to "force" somebody to pay their debts. However, you can enforce the partnership agreement against her.
