Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

If there are items in the house that were awarded to you as part of the final divorce decree, and your ex-spouse is preventing you from retrieving those items, you may consider filing a contempt motion with the court that granted the divorce. The court will set a hearing time and date and you will be required to appear and explain the situation. The judge can then send the a sheriff out to the house with you to safely retrieve your items.

If your divorce decree doesn't give you that property, it isn't yours.

If it does, and your spouse isn't complying, call your lawyer from the divorce to first write a letter, and then, if needed, to file a contempt.
