Once you take an ex to court for contempt is it jail or pay or can the judge rule he set up a payment plan with the IRS if it was part of the divorce decree?
I wouldn't understand how YOU could take someone to court for "Contempt of Court"...your not the court...they determine if they want to charge someone with contempt... Generally, a court can always determine what the best course to resolve a problem is...and if it is something with someone opaying, normally that is a way to asssure payment, not jail. If your divorce decree stated that he was responsible for the back taxes, and he is not taking care of them, you should speak with an Attorney about what your options are. Be aware though, that the IRS does not care what your divorce decree says. They are going to come after both of you until arrangments are made.

Is there any legal recourse against a former spouse for multiple unfounded Contempt of Court motions?
be more specific on the reason for contempt of court. i have worked for lawyers and police department and their are reasons given for contempt of court. your question needs to be changed . did you go to court numerous times and the case was dismissed or thrown out? when a judge says"contempt of court" it may because a person was lying, not following a court order, not showing up at all, etc. she accused of things you didn't do, and tried to get you for contempt on court orders? if so, get her for perjury, falsified information, harassing, and if she tries it again, take all your paper work proving the point to a judge. he can fine her for taking up the time of a judge with unjustifible suits. there is a name for it, but can't think of it right now.
