enforcement of judges decrees

is there some way the courts/judges followup on the decrees/orders they set out and make sure that they are enforced by the legal system/or court system themselves? mainly my concern is when a judge signs a final divorce decree and one party is not following the agreement/ruling that was in this document doesn't the court/judge have a followup method that ensures it is followed...like a letter or legal representative of the court contacting the party and making sure it is followed? without having to go back to court again? like if you don't stop at the stop sign like the law(in this case the divorce decree) says, you know the policeman(the judge) will definitely let you know you have done wrong. thanks for any info.

My response:

Nice idea, but no there isn't such a method. It's up to the parties to determine if their agreement is being breached and, if so, to take action on their own to bring the same to the attention of the judge.
