Re: Looking at a decree violation anyone have any answers... crushedman: wizer-
Just because jail time is a remedy doesn't mean it actually occurs in real world situations. I'm telling you I've been in a business that I see divorce decree violations everyday and half the time I can't get anyone to do ANYTHING about them, even for sums of money into 6 figures. It may be technically POSSIBLE that jail is a possibility, but highly improbable.

Re: Looking at a decree violation anyone have any answers... wizer_now: Here in NY the consequences can be jail time. I think you would need to have a hearing first. They aren't just going to lock you away just like that.
Good idea to repost this thread here...you can go back and delete the other one.

I was ordered to pay XW $1750 by tomorrow. Long story, lots of lies, sometimes I wish I was a woman in this divorce crap, but anywho, she is calling for her money and someones attorney dropped the ball on the QUADRO that was supposed to be filed. If she decides to try and get me for a violation what are the consequences? Keep in mind I have never said to her or anyone that I wouldn't pay her but the judge decided that I only needed 30 days to come up with the money and I don't know what is going to happen. My attorney assured me that everything would be ok and let her make a stink but I am just curious if anyone else has been put in this spot. She is like an ingrown hair that just won't go away

Your attorney is right at saying not to worry. I wasn't able to pay something within an amt of time and it got set onto arrears. That's just my case though.
