Perry, GA Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

In Utah, if the award of the house to your ex-wife in the divorce was conditioned upon her making the mortgage payment in full and on time, but your ex-wife as failed to perform that condition, you can go back into court seeking a modification of the decree of divorce, asking that the house be awarded to you or that the house be sold to remove you from the mortgage is liable party. You can also ask on a temporary basis that your wife the order to vacate the house and that renters be allowed in, if you have renters available, so that your ex-wife no longer has possession and occupancy of the house and you have a means of having the mortgage paid pending sale. There may be other options available to you as well, but these are the most common. You would be wise to have an attorney help you with this as opposed to trying to do it yourself, as doing it yourself will probably take a lot of time but you don't have and you wouldn't want to make a mistake.

I'm sure your attorney is doing everything she can to get service. Unless you can hire a process server to try to catch up with him, this is a difficult thing to accomplish. If you could get him to come see the children for a particular event, the attorney might be able to get sheriff service, if you can't hire a process server.

It is technically contempt any time a person fails to follow a court order; however, in a case involving spousal support or child support for that matter, the court can not find him in contempt if he is caught up by the time he has a hearing. Your post indicates that he would likely pay up before anything happens to him. Good luck.
