Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
IRS Liability
-I have been divorced since january 2000 and on my own since Feb 98.
- My divorce agreement states my ex husband liability toward the IRS for
97 and 98.
-He did not pay and the IRS failed to notify me of anything regarding
that account. I kept up with monthly telephone calls and I was always
ensured that payments were being made by my ex.
- I requested equity spouse relief based on the fact that I had already
paid taxes out of my paychecks and was never notified of all the
penalties and interests charged to the account. My request was in a
preliminary decision denied. I am appealing.
- In the meanwhile, my ex is cutting a deal with an offer and
compromise with the IRS which will leave me as the only responsible. (he
owes for several years-I am a perfect tax payer)
- I would like to make me sign a form that in addition to my divorce
decree gave me another document through which I can easily sue him.
Like a promissory note. What do you advice?
Thanks!

Re: IRS Liability
I believe you can sue him for his breach of the divorce decree.
