The attempt of the ex-wife of jailed attorney Marc S. Dreier to collect $7 million in support from his bankruptcy estate suffered a setback this week. Refusing to lift an automatic stay in the case, a bankruptcy judge held that Elisa Dreier was not entitled to have a state judge decide whether Mr. Dreier's noncompliance with a separation agreement accelerated all of the pact's support obligations. That means Ms. Dreier's claim will be weighed against those of other creditors in bankruptcy court.
