Re: specific

If the Order requires to the sign a Quitclaim Deed and you refuse to do so, you can be held in contempt of court and sanctioned or imprisoned. If you want to contest the Order itself, you have a limited time in which to do so, and you should act quickly to protect your rights. However, you may still have to sign the Deed in the interim.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
