Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
Most contracts which involve installment payments contain what are known as "acceleration clauses", which provide that if there is a default the entire amount becomes immediately due and payable. If you look at your contract, I bet you will find it there. As for a breach of the peace, that is a matter for the police, but you probably won't get far complaing about a past breach of the peace, rather than an ongoing one.
