You need to go back to the court that issued your divorce judgment that equired to her to buy you out. If that was in California, you would file an OSC re: contempt. You can do that from anywhere, either by mail or FedEx or by hiring an attorney in that location to help. You would, however, have to show up for the court hearing.
