Legal Question in Family Law in California

According to the Court Order I am to receive Spousal Support Arrears, by Direct Deposit, on the 15th of every Month. If I do not receive the monies, is it appropriate to contact the Respondent's Attorney notifying her; and then what is my recourse?

You can contact the opposing attorney, unless you yourself are also represented by an attorney. If you are represented by an attorney, your attorney will need to do the contact.

Family law court orders are enforceable the same as other money judgments, and also by way of contempt. If you are supposed to be receiving a direct deposit monthly, then you will probably need to put a wage garnishment order in place.
