Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Collecting judgement in a divorce case. I received a small judgement in a divorce case several years ago, I have recently attempted to collect by filing:

TO COMPEL ANSWER TO INTERROGATORRIES AND REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION

MCPL ANSWERS TO INTERROGATORIES AND REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION

MEMO in support of motion to compel

DISCOVERY IN AID OF EXECUTTION TO DEFENDANT WITH ATTACHMENT

The counter party has not responded to any correspondence or answered interrogatories.

I have a hearing scheduled for next week. I want to get aggressive with collecting this judgement and would like the court to issue some type of writ of bodily garnishment or something of that nature.

What advice would you give? , especially as it pertains to what to say to the judge and/or what paperwork should be filed next?

Thank you

1 .First obtain an order to compel answers.

2. If he fails to answer, seek an order of contempt of court.

The court will issue an order compelling answers first, then if that deadline passes you can go for contempt, jail, etc. Contact my office for free consultation, 727-446-7659
