Section 13 And Child-Support Payments Received

[lot]

My issue requires bankruptcy within the state-of: Mi - If my ex-spouse owes me back child-support (and doesn't spend frequently) and I'm in a chapter 13 bankruptcy... what could occur to any lump-sum funds he may create as time goes by? Am I going to need certainly to submit them for the trustee against my strategy?
