Maine Revised Statutes Title 19-A. Domestic Relations § 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.

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.

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.
