Legal Question in Family Law in California
Husband Refuses To QuitClaim Property
In my divorce 8 years ago I was awarded real property located in Florida (the divorce was filed in California). Prior to the final judgment my ex moved overseas where he is now a permanent resident and has started another family. He is 25K behind in child support and refuses to sign over real property to me. How can I get the property deeded to me?

You will probably need to register the California court order in Florida and obtain the assistance of a Florida attorney to obtain a court order for the clerk to sign the deed or whatever the Florida process.

In a general sense, it may be possible to have the Court Order the clerk of the court to sign a transfer deed on behalf of your former spouse. Your underlying Judgment will have to first be reviewed and evaluated.
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
