Post judgment enforcement refers to those situations after a divorce when a party is not complying with one or more terms of the Property Settlement Agreement or Divorce Judgment. In those situations it may become necessary to make an application to the court to have the Agreement or Judgment enforced. An example would be where one party had agreed to transfer title to certain property over to the other party, then fails or refuses to do it. In that situation a court order may be necessary in order to force the party to comply with his or her prior agreement. Post judgment modification refers to those situations where circumstances have changed to a point where either child support or alimony should be increased or decreased. Some examples of circumstances that might warrant a change in the amount of these payments include: - Loss of income/job
- Injury or illness resulting in disability
- Retirement
- Substantial increase in income
- Emancipation of child
- Increased child care costs such as college or medical costs
