My ex has stopped working and intends to go back to court to eliminate my alimony. During the divorce he did not list properties he owns on his financial statement and I’m sure he won’t list them again if he has to fill out another one. Isn’t this fraud? How can I let the judge know there is missing information?

May I ask: did you not realize this when you were getting divorce? Did you have an attorney? Did the attorney not show you the disclosure statements and did you not say something? I think you need really good legal help here. When he makes the application to reduce your support you have to oppose it with an affidavit stating that the properties you are talking about are not disclosed and were not disclosed when the original determination was made. Show proof of ownership (get copies of deeds, etc.) and show that there is income from the property if applicable. Next, move for an increase retroactively and a judgement for the amount he was supposed to pay but did not given the fraud. Good luck.
