Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
My ex was ordered to pay medical reimbursements for insurance and dental. She refuses to pay. Child support was also ordered to stop. She refused to sign the orders. So the payments were still coming out when I received custody and are still coming out. Finally the orders were enforced into the courts without her signature and are waiting to be entered. How do I get her to pay all the money that she owes me? Her attorney can no longer get ahold of her and she has disconnected her phone and I can no longer get ahold of her, do not know where she is?

It sounds like you don't have an attorney. You really need one.
Her signature is not needed for the judge to eventually sign the final orders.
If you had an attorney, the attorney could set the orders for a time for the judge to sign the orders. If you don't have an attorney, you can appear & ask the judge to sign the orders.
Now getting her to pay is a totally different matter. You will need to file a contempt matter against her at a later date. You will definately need an attorney for that legal matter. Contempt is a technical matter & is extremely difficult without an attorney. I recommend PATRICIA BUSHMAN at 71380709405. In contempt, you can ask the judge to have her pay part or all of your legal fees!
