Summary
If a court orders the sale of a home and one party refuses to comply, they may be in contempt of court. You can file a motion for contempt at the Vanderburgh County Superior Court. This involves drafting the motion, filing it, and serving it to the non-compliant party. While you can file it pro se (self-represented), seeking legal advice is recommended to ensure proper procedure.Full Conversation
