What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Mississippi

I have a Judgement for damages in a custody case to repay legal and other fees associated with bringing the modification of divorce before the court. This was nearly a year ago and now the party at fault is suing for visitation. What can I do to collect on these in order to help fund the costs going forward that are sure to come up with this new motion. I am not unrealistic in knowing that the chances of any repayment are slim but I would like to know what my options are before I have to go pay a local lawyer that I am not sure I can afford. Thank you

no repayment schedule, and honestly until the recent motion I hadn't heard a peep. Address and other details were completely unknown. Now that they have resurfaced I do not know how to proceed but cannot afford to pay for legal council.

Was this a property settlement situation or alimony or child support?
