Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Utah

My check was cashed though it should have been held
A default judgement had been granted against me. We were sent to mediation. I explained that I missed the court trial date because of illness. I had been in the hospital. The other party led me to believe that there was noting I could do, but pay the amount he recieved judgement for. The judge advised me to seek legal council and said that he would hold it over for 30 days. I spoke with a lawyer then filed a Set aside judgment which was granted. Today I recived my bank statement showing the check for full payment had been cashed. The court was to hold the check pending on the ruling in 30 days. When I filed the set aside judgement I requested the check be held till a decision was made. What do I do?

Go back to the court and explain what happened. Ask for the funds to be paid back or paid into the court and held until the matter is resolved.
