Enforcing Compliance with Court Orders
The provisions contained in your divorce decree are Court Orders. If your former spouse is failing to comply with custody, support, visitation, or property division provisions contained in your Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage, you can request that the Court enforce the terms of your divorce decree.
The bottom line is this- a former spouse who is responsible for paying child support or maintenance should pay it, parenting time should not be interfered with; property should be divided as required under the Judgment. If it is not being done, then your former spouse is violating a Court Order.
If the court orders, in your case, are not being followed, you can seek remedies such as civil contempt in order to ensure that you receive all you are entitled to pursuant to the Court’s order. Additionally, the Court may order your former spouse to pay the attorney fees you incurred to bring the action to enforce the Court Order.
