Nov.8, 2005 ORDER
The respondent is in contempt for failing without justification or excuse, to abide by the Courts Order to pay past due uninsured dental expenses to Dr. ------'s office in the amount of $1,771.00. For willfully disregarding this courts order, respondent shall be sentenced to the -- County Jail for a period of 30 days beginning Nov. 15, 2005 at 5:00pm, unless respondent fully complies with this courts order of June 1, 2005 prior to said date and time. Respondent shall pay Petitioners' attorney fee within 30 days. (leaving the balance $399.34 19%for me)
Jan 30, 2005 ORDER
Petitioner (me) files Motion for Enforcement of Order of Nov. 7, 2005. And the court being duly advised in the premises, NOW FINDS that this matter should be set hearing on Jan. 30 2006 and respondent, name, is ordered to appear.
More FACTS:
Respondent has harrassed the Dr. about "not properly filing insurance" he wanted it filed as a medical bill, instead of just orthodontic. Which the judge heard all of his reasons in court in June and still ordered him to pay the $1, 771.00 Last week, the orthodontic office wrote off the balance of $1,185.00 because of the phone calls she was receiving at home from respondent. I am not sure what is right for me to ask for on Jan 30th.
Total bill $3,800.00, ins. pd $1,539.66, write off $1,184 I have paid $661 and he has paid $412.00 to office. Would it be right that I ask for him to pay me the difference of $661 and the amount I was ordered to pay $399.34? Or total 3800, less ins and w/o, his 81% would then be 798.93 and mine 187.40 and then I should receive $449.60.
My attorney and I are having a disagreement on this issue. He thinks we should not go to court on 30th if he pays him the $400 owed by 30th, since there is no bill left at Orthodontic Office there is nothing to go to court about. I want to do what is right. I have read your post for years and I value your opinion. Please advise. Thanks
