The Case
A divorce in which we represented the Father, who retained full custody of his two young children. The ex- wife was ordered to pay over $30,000 to the husband, in addition to child support.
The Issue
Opposing Counsel filed an Appeal to the Order, but did not show up to defend the Appeal. The ex-wife never paid any of the money she was ordered to transfer to our client.
The Strategy
Diligent pursuit of Complaints for Contempt filed separately against both the ex-wife and her counsel.
The Decision
Opposing counsel was found in Contempt of Court and ordered to pay attorneys fees. The ex-wife was given a 30-day suspended sentence and ordered to pay the money she owes her ex-husband, or spend a month in jail.
