thereafter, on due notice to the judgment creditor, apply to the court in which the

trial judgment was obtained for the privilege of paying the judgment in installments. The court, in its discretion and without prejudice to any other legal remedies which

the judgment creditor may have, may so order, fixing the amounts and times of payment

debtor has failed to comply with the terms of the court order.
