Ex-wife not honoring property division of divorce decree
in my divorce, my ex-wife agreed to pay 460.00 per month on a vehicle loan that was financed in my name. she said she need the vehicle because it was safe and dependable for the transportation of our children. i have already taken her back to court once for non payment and recieved a garnishment but not very much since. she currently owes me over 9000.00 and the loan is current and will be paid off by me in march of this year. i also know that she has not had possession of this vehicle from 6 months after our divorce. i have asked frequently for these payments and also sent her a certified letter with no response. we have joint custody of the children and she avoids me at every opportunity. what do i do next?

You can file a motion for contempt and ask the court to force her to pay the debt to you. If she fails to do so, the judge can jail her until she complies. It is amazing how fast people can come up with money when it means they might have to go to jail if they do not pay.
