More details to this question:
The X son in law says he doesn't have to pay me anything at all because he doesn't have to go by any divorce Judge document. If I want my money I have to take him back to court and then he will think about it. Is he is Breach of Contract or do I have to go through different procedures for him to follow? In the divorce it was listed under their bills and they made me one of those bills. Do I have to get an attorney and refight this or is the divorce that was signed by a Judge good enough to show Breach of Contract? He never showed at any of his hearings for the divorce with much time to do so and the Judge put it into the Divorce Contract. What do I do now?

Depends on the situation with the paperwork in the divorce. However, generally the divorce decrees are only in regard to the parties and thier obligations for each others debt to each other, not the creditors. If he refuses to pay, you will likely have to sue him in court for breach of contract, get a judgment against him. etc.
