MEMORANDUM OPINION

HAROLD C. ABRAMSON, Bankruptcy Judge.

In this case, the Court must inquire into whether several obligations undertaken by the debtor as part of an agreement incident to divorce are a dischargeable property settlement or nondischargeable obligations for support. This Court rules that the obligations were intended to provide the debtor's wife with future support, and therefore, are not dischargeable.
