§2602. Support orders

1.  Installment payments.  In a support order or costs, the court may include an order to pay specified installment payments as provided under Title 14, sections 3126-A to 3136.

[PL 1999, c. 587, §11 (AMD).]

2.  Future obligations.  The court may order installment payments for future obligations under the decree. The court may enforce its decree ordering installment payments as provided under Title 14, sections 3126-A to 3136. In enforcement actions under those sections, the person ordered to pay is deemed a judgment debtor and the person entitled to receive the payments a judgment creditor.

[PL 1999, c. 587, §12 (AMD).]

3.  Disclosure hearing.  The court may make an order under subsection 1 without a separate disclosure hearing, if the court has already determined the person's ability to pay and the person's receipt of money from a source other than a source that is otherwise exempt from trustee process, attachment and execution.

[PL 1995, c. 694, Pt. B, §2 (NEW); PL 1995, c. 694, Pt. E, §2 (AFF).]
