Pompano Beach, FL asked in Family Law for Florida

Q: Ex filed certificate of mandatory disclosure. No information was received by me. Certificate indicates completion

He checked off a few items, indicating completion, wrote "N/A" on other items, and left a few items blank. The items left blank are most important. Can I treat these blank items as noncompliance? I'm filing a motion to compel this week. I have filed two good faith request for disclosure. Received only one item of the three he checked and none of the items he left blank.

A: The appropriate pleading to address this issue is a motion to compel. If your husband continues to refuse to abide by the court orders the court may enter sanctions against him including attorney fees and costs and potentially may be incarcerated until he complies. We offer a free initial consultation and would be glad to assist you in this matter if this is pending in our jurisdiction. We offer payment plans and will seek an attorney fee award from your husband.

God bless you.
