Contempt Orders
Failure to abide by and honor the terms of a court judgment set forth by a judge in the legal system may result in the violator being held in contempt by the court. For some court orders, such as child support, this may potentially result in jail time unless and until the violator complies with the court order.
By filing a motion to hold the violator in contempt of court, it may result in the violator complying with the judgment and possibly preventing the failure to comply with the judgment from becoming more serious.

Financial Collection
In matters that involve non-payment of child support or maintenance, a party may file with the court an income withholding that is sent to the non-payor’s employer to withhold money from the non-payor’s wages. In some circumstances for the collection of a judgment for a party to pay money, a party may file a request for a seizure order against the non-payor’s personal property.
The court systems have dealt with recalcitrant debtors for many years and have established procedures for you to pursue collection of the payments you are to receive and that you deserve pursuant to the judgment.
