In my divorce agreement my husband agreed to buy my part of the family home and undertook to bring payment on the day of the divorce ceremony at the rabbinical court. We got divorced – but he never brought the cheques. He has carried on making excuse after excuse ever since. What legal steps can I take ?
By: דיאנה שאלתיאל•Published on: 10 May, 2022It is possible to file a plea for the cancellation of the part of the divorce agreement relating to the family home because the ex-husband never kept his contractual obligation to pay for his ex-wife’s part of the property at the time stated. This omission to pay on time represents a fundamental breach of contract under the 1973 Contracts Law (General Part) , for which the ex-wife is entitled to cancel the part of the divorce agreement relating to the apartment.
