Legal Question in Family Law in New York

I have an order from a NY family court where I was awarded close to $50,000 in counsel fees that my ex-husband is suppose to pay me directly for. He has not made any attempts to pay anything. I filed a motion for the enforcement of the counsel fees as well as other monies that he owes me in court but the judge only scheduled a hearing for June. I need to know if there is anything else I can do? Can I use the order to place a lien against him? Do I need the order turned into a judgment? Thank you!
