What can I do if my ex husband was ordered to pay me $100 a week for alimony and he failed to do so?

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.

Who is entitled to the funds from our second property in a divorce?

Theodore William Buselmeier
Answered by attorney Theodore William Buselmeier (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Buselmeier Law & Associates, P.A.
Generally, so long as your refinanced money could be traced (that is, proved that you used the refi money to purchase the home), then that initial equity would be considered nonmarital property and not subject to division. You're correct, the gain realized during the marriage would be marital property and therefore divided. However, there is a law in MN that allows for division of nonmarital property but it is largely discretionary by the judge and not commonly applied. I can think of many scenarios that you would allow for distribution of your nonmarital property voluntarily. One example would be payment for consideration of a spousal maintenance (alimony) waiver.

Why would a Judge make a ruling for me to pay $4,500 over my income?

The figures that are stated in this question need a full review and discussion as to what was presented to the Judge and why a ruling like this was made. It seems that part of this may be due to some support arrears that the Judge wants to get caught up. Did you get an order following this hearing? It would be best to discuss and review all the information.
