What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida.
My sister and i moved to an appartment together to save money. All food/bills, etc were paid avenly. However over a little more than 2 years there was numerous instances where one would pay the full amount, holding the receipt to then be paid back later (ex: taco bell, i = $2, she = $5, i pay $7, receipt shows she owes $5). She doesnt have good record keeping, so the majority of time i did the paying so there could be no back and forth (like: u owe me $500, but i dont have proof of it). After finally totaling all the receipts up (12 hours spread through 3 days), she owes me around $12,000. I have voice recording of her saying she will pay me back. Her personality is that say she has spare money, rather than pay me back or eat cheap food like rice she'd get pizza. She has 6 cats, a dog, and a 5ish month old baby (only supposed to have 1 pet, one of many reasons i moved out a little while ago). She doesnt make too much money (can cover whats needed with some extra). She doesnt seem like shes going to pay me back (maybe years from now decide to), thinking when its convienent for her to pay back, rather than it being a loan (kind of) which you pay back as soon as you can. Because she technically has my money, im lowish on funds. The question is: is there any way i can sue her where the court requires her to pay money back in installments, like taking out of her paycheck so she doesnt spend it instead of returning it, etc. Something like child support, student loans type of thing. Thanks for the help.
