sick of paying

Guest
My husband is paying restitution in a 'joint and several' manner. The other defendent has paid very little and hasn't paid anymore and now we have to pay the whole thing. My husband is still on probation and the other gentleman is off probation. Doesn't seem fair to me. Is there anything we can do to get him to pay the rest and get us out of it? Any helpful advice is welcome.

My response:

Yes. You sue in Small Claims court, obtain your judgment, and have his wages garnished, and bank accounts emptied, or take whatever property that can be levied against. Go to your bookstore and get a book on Small Claims "How To" practice and procedures.
