Q: If my ex owes a significant amount in arrears, does he have to have it paid by the end of the year?
He makes minimal payments but does not even cover the monthly amount and the arrears just keep growing and growing. In the docket information it said back in June that they were placing an order to seize assets and the remaining balance would be released after seizure but I have not gotten anything.
A: These seizures often take some time, even when they actually locate bank accounts in his name to seize. I suggest that you contact your Domestic Relations casewoker to learn the status of the matter.
