Re: not paying a divorce settlement
It sounds like you have a judgment against her and can execute on that judgment by wage garnishment or any other enforcement methods available to you. You do not need to "take her back to court" you can get a writ of execution without notice to her, but you may need an attorney to assist you in collection. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
