More details to this question:
My Dad is looking to file for divorce. He signed an agreement in the separation that he would pay for a trailer and she would pay for a home equity loan. She has done so, but because of ailing health my dad will no longer be able to. What will the legal ramifications be to him if he stops paying? There is nothing stated in the separation papers about what would happen.

A divorce agreement can be enforced through the court. His ex-spouse can file a petition to enforce the agreement and seek to make him pay and recoup attorney's fees. However, if he cannot afford to pay, the court may not be able to enforce it.
