If the other party isn't cooperating after reaching settlement through mediation in a divorce in Oklahoma, is motion to settle quicker than going to a trial?
answered on Jan 29, 2019
Motion to settle resolves an order that was either agreed upon or decided by the judge and the other party does not sign. Purpose is to get the court to sign an order.
A trial means there is no agreement and the court conducts a hearing "trial" to decide all contested issues.... View More
Divorce requires that ex-wife make these payments. Because the account is in my name, every time she misses a payment, my credit rating gets trashed. Lane Bryant refuses to change the account to her name. So I would like to file charges against both the ex-wife and Comenity Bank.
answered on Jan 28, 2019
Your action would be against your ex
not the bank. You can file contempt against your ex if she has willfully violated an order if the court. If found guilty she can be ordered to pay your attorney fees and in some extreme cases even be sentenced to jail.
