Q. My ex has not paid half of health insurance for one of our children as stated in the divorce. How can i get him to pay?
A: You should file a Petition for Rule to Show Cause why he should not be held in contempt of court for failure to pay one half of the insurance. The court can find him in contempt of court for violating the court order.
Q. We agreed to sell the house in Moline at the time if the divorce,(08/09/2012). Need house sold and back rent.
A: You need to file a Petition for Rule to Show Cause as to why he should not be held in contempt of court for violating the judgment. There are two issues . The first is that he failed to sell the house within the two year period. The second is that he failed to pay you the rent. This pleading should be filed in the county in Illinois that the judgment was entered in, assuming it was not domesticated in CA.
Q. Does my daughters father get her for a week.
A: You need to follow what it says in your parenting agreement. However, in all likelihood it usually is in the child's best interest to be with one of the parents. So in the event that you are not available that week, you should consider the father.
