In a final judgment they require you to fill out a Florida Rules of Civil Procedures form 1.977 Fact Information Sheet and return it within 45 days what will happen to me if I don't?
What can happen if you refuse to complete and submit the form is the plaintiff can ask the court for a contempt charge against you and file another order for you the complete the fact sheet in another 45 days. If you fail to comply the plaintiff can then ask the judge for another contempt against you because the order for the form is a order from the judge himself he will on the plaintiff request issue a order for bodily attachment. What that means he will order a sheriff to go pick you up and bring you to his court for a debtors examination of your assets. The sheriff will usually allow you to bring your financial information with you but be assured you will be taken before the judge either way. If you refuse to either obey the sheriff or refuse to answer questions related to the fact sheet you will more than likely be jailed until your ready to comply. My advise, contact the plaintiff or his attorney and work out a way to pay the debt. If you really didn't owe the money in the first place you wouldn't have lost the case now would you? (whoever wrote that last little judgmental tidbit is a real douche bag. I know this doesn't answer the originakl question, but I'm sure it answers the question you had after reading it, "what the hell..??")
