Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

My former spouse has moved to Wisconsin from Louisiana and refuses to communicate with me at all. He even refuses to communicate to my attorney. Is there a way to force him to communicate? We have joint custody and I believe he's at least supposed to be communicating concerning her health, education, and welfare. Can even more communication be ordered, such as regarding the pension he has or transferring title of car when it is paid off since it's been allotted to me through the Community Partition? I'd also like to know the sanctions that are available for noncompliance concerning noncommunication. Thank you, Liat Krush

If he is failing to communicate, he is most likely in contempt of the court's order which should be spelled out in the judgment. He will have to served with the contempt proceeding. The court can order anything they deem in the best interests of the child.
