Your inquiry was somewhat difficult to follow.
You probably need to pursue a Motion to Enforce/Compel.
Depending upon the specifics, my retainer for this type of case maybe as little as $1,250 .00(includes Court fee to reopen case). If the Court finds in your favor, there is an excellent chance that your ex will be ordered to pay/reimburse your attorney fees and costs.
If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.
The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.
An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.
If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.
