Full question:
I recently had a judgement in housing court that basically stated that my purchase agreement of my mobile was altered to fraud 2000 dollar more then the original agreed price. and this being discovered the presiding judge declared the home was paid in full. To put it mildly the judge let the lawyer for the mobile park (defrauders) know that it made him mad, he went on to ask their lawyer if he needed to gather all the parties involved back to 'strong arm the park mgt. to give me the homes title, their lawyer wormed his way out of that by promising that his clients would comply. obviously they will not produce title and are trying to extort 3000 dollars from a potential buyer by stating that I still owed that and they will not produce the title until this 3000 dollar balance is paid QUESTION: WHAT MOTION DO I HAVE TO FILE WITH THE COURT BRING THEM IN FRONT OF THAT SAME JUDGE AND to subpoena my buyer as a friendly witness to testify as to their disdain regarding the standing judgment of my zero balance? added note that already lost a motion to reconsider original judgement. what paper work needs done?

Answer:
When a court order isn't followed, a petition for contempt may be filed in the court that issued the order. A request may also be made to have the court to order the noncomplying party to pay for the losses caused by the failure to comply. The court retains continuing jurisdiction to enforce its orders by holding the noncomplying party in contempt of court. In Illinois, to find a person in contempt, you may file a Petition for Rule to Show Cause and complete the Notice of Motion.
A subpoena can only be issued by a court officer, such as an attorney or court clerk. We suggest you contact the clerk of courts regarding issuing a witness subpoena. It is also possible to have the witness complete an affidavit, rather than appear personally. The affidavit sets for the facts the witness attests to and is signed and notarized before a notary.
