Legal Question in Family Law in California
Abstract of Judgment Civil/Abstract of Support Judgment
I have filed Forms FL-480 and
EJ-001 with the Superior Court of
California of San Diego. I have no
lawyer. The courts have accepted
the forms, but I have not heard from
them about what comes next. My
Ex owes ''past due'' alimony in the
amount of over $100,000 and
Marital Settlements in the amount of
over $40,000. Is there ''any
chance'' that the courts will assist
me in getting these ''past due''
amounts PAID?.... And What does
happen ''next'' after these forms are
accepted by the courts?
Thank You Very Much for your
answers.

Re: Abstract of Judgment Civil/Abstract of Support Judgment
The court does not "assist" you in collecting on the judgment they will only issue the abstracts and writs. I recently taught a seminar to attorneys on collection at the El Cajon courthouse. You may be able to get your attorney's fees paid by your husband on the collection. Please feel free to contact me concerning possibility of collection. Tell my staff I offered a free consultation.
