How do you enforce a divorce decree? And what would the purpose of mediation be in this case?

My ex and I have assets and money that we are still trying to disolve of. According to our divorce decree some of the items we dont agree upon are already spelled out in the decree. The ex is not wanting to split things as we already agreed upon and these items have been signed off already and notorized. What happens in a situation when one party isnt going by the decree? An example of my ex who was supposed to put money back into the joint account that we had but never did? Another example is that we have income from the previous year that is to be divided by percentages and the ex refuses to split accordingly and these items are already in the final decree. What happens now? The ex wants mediation but this stuff is already in the decree. What is the purpose of mediation and can that overwrite this contract of decree? What is the right thing to do. Ive tried discussing with the ex but they still refuse to try to work on an agreeable solution.

Ok, in a situation like this, always discuss things with your attorney. A divorce decree is for people who want to try and split things down the middle legally and get in things in writing. But it sounds like you’re going to have to take more legal action to get him to do what he’s supposed to do. Whatever’s in writing that he hasn’t done, he could be held in contempt of court=jail time if not resolved. A mediator is only needed when children are involved and they help the court/judge decide which parent they should live with and then shared parenting is also decided. There are too many issues it sounds like that he’s not willing to stick with in the agreement therefore you’ll have to take him back to court.
