What is the most likely response of a judge to a party who has refused to comply with discovery (pay stubs, W-2's, bank account and investment account information, etc.)? My wife refused to comply last fall and in December the judge was very clear that she needed to comply and he ordered her to pay $500 to my attorney for the extra time he has spent on this. It's now three months later and she still has not complied. Her response was a few paragraphs of ridiculous excuses. We have another hearing coming up. What can the judge do in cases like this?
