My ex-husband owes me huindreds of dollars for our daughters medical expenses. He filed bancruptsy and I don't know if I need to file claims to the bankruptsy courts. He has always refused to pay me even though our decree states he pays 70% I pay 30%. She lives with my husband and I except every other weekend and once during the week. Thats if he even takes her. My 2 years is up as far as evaluating the child support. I guess my guestion is, he is telling me he isnt responsible for medical bills because I took our daughter to the Dr. I never recieved any medical cards from him. I have had to find out everything about our daughters benifits from his job. He also has never followed the decree and I'm thinking his bancruptsy should have nothing to do with our daughter and what he owes me. Am I wrong? What actions should I take to fix this, plus get him to do what the decree says. By the way, I am in collections because of the medical bills. There are so many other things that have happened but all I want to be heard. I need to have someone actually listen to me. Do judges do that? Well, thank you so much for your time and I hope I haven't totally confused you!!
