Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: post divorce/civil rights

I'm not sure I understand all the details given here. What I can tell you is that if the judge approved the sale, the only thing you can do is ask him to change his mind; to set order aside. Depending on the value of the home, $200,000 below market is not equitable if it keeps you from collecing your $15,000. If the home is valued in the millions, of course, with this market, the judge may not have a choice but approve a sale that at least liquidates that asset. It depends on the facts.

I am surprised that a realtor working for the family has become a party in your legal action.

You do not say whether there is anything in your final judgment stating when the sale must take place...

No, what the court has ordered has nothing to do with civil rights which are not being affected. You have a mistaken idea of the defintion of civil rights. On the other hand, if you disagree with what is happening or the misreprentations of the realtor, then have your attorney file a motion for modification of the final judgment based on the facts which have transpired.
