Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

I have a DRO on file in Louisiana, saying that I'm entitled to half of the benefits available in the name of my former spouse, through the Louisiana State Employees Retirement System. The problem is that my former spouse has no intention of ever applying, for he knows I will gain. Can I get an addendum to the Judgment so that it would say he must apply by a certain age and if he doesn't, that an arrangement will be made so that the state retirement system will disburse funds to me as I want them disbursed?

There is a procedure which you can use to get access to the funds. These orders are very specialized so it would be important to hire an attorney experienced in them.
