Without knowing the exact relationship between the debtor and the promoter, it is a little hard to give you advice on the exact legal procedure to follow. You should, however, be able to get an ongoing writ of execution that requires the promoter to pay you on an ongoing basis. If they don't, haul the promoter into court on a contempt citiation. That will get their attention. If you know that they paid the debtor AFTER you served the last writ, they are already in contempt, go after them now.
