What is the name of your state? Kansas
About 2 1/2 yrs. ago I got divorced. We had gone to mediation and came to an agreement after 2 yrs. We agreed that I got an amount of $ from property we owned, I agreed I would get a few things that we had aquired during the marriage. I was also to recieve the items that belonged to my children from a previous marriage. He had 30 days to return all the items. I got some of the items but not all of them. He had excuses. He said he didn't have then anymore or they were broke or whatever. It was a Divorce settlement agreement and he did not comply. We went back to court and the judge allowed his excuses and ordered him to pay a very small amount for the items. I talked to the judge afterwords. He alluded to me that I could get him for contempt. Does anyone know if I can? If so what the statue of limitations would be for this in Kansas. I would never have agreed if I wasn't going to recieve the items that he agreed to give me.

The judge committed an ethical violation if he was talking to you about the case without the other party around and gave you legal advice.

As for contempt, what did you take him back to court for that he was ordered to pay you? What court did you take him too to get money for the items?
