I divorced two years ago and was supposed to be paid a maintenence fee during the two years by my ex. He hasn't paid me for a whole years worth and he's been late each time, which requires an additional $100.00 late fee each month. He's a policeman. This goes before the judge for review at the end of the two years. That date is tommorrow. I don't know what to do. I have no lawyer to represent me so I'm not sure if I have to be there or if this automatically is dismissed. He claims he will pay me but I'm afraid this could drag on another year. What can I do?
Additional information
Also three weeks ago he called me and tried to convince me to write, notorize and send him a letter stating I would not go to court and ask for more money. I said I would do no such thing and that I only wanted what he owed me. He became angry and threatened to get his own lawyer to draw up such papers to have me sign. I told him he could not force me to sign anything and I would not do it. He's aggressive and confrontational and I don't want to fight anymore. I really need some peace. Answers (2)Peter LaSorsa

If possible show up tomorrow with an attorney if not just listen to the Judge and answer the Judges questions. You should hire an attorney however.
