The sheriff is supposed to enforce the Court's Judgment, but they do not always do so. You should file a motion for contempt with the Court and thereby inform the Court that the ex is not abiding by the Court's order. The Court can hold the person in contemp and can even put them in jail if they refuse to follow the Court's Orders and Judgments.
