Divorce is Final, Ex's Lawyer Won't Release Papers

[kenergy123]

What is the name of your state? California

My divorce was final 12/1/05, the judge ordered my ex's lawyer to write
up the decree. I was Pro Per. At that time, the judge said I should have
the papers in two weeks. When I called the lawyer's office last week,
I was told it would be four to six MORE weeks. I then called the judge's
clerk and was told there is no time frame for turning final divorce papers
over to me. I need these papers, to process my portion of the retirement
fund into my bank account. I need to do this very soon, as I have major
medical bills for a child with Cystic Fibrosis and was left with absolutely
no money from my ex-husband.

What rights do I have to force the lawyer to turn over my papers?
She is very aggressive towards me, since I successfully won at trial
and at the MSC. Please help a frustrated mother, who keeps waiting
for the mailman!
