THIS CAUSE comes before the Court upon Judgment Creditor Crossroads Financial,

(3) find that the Judgment Debtors are in civil contempt; (4) impose a fine upon the Judgment 
Debtors of $200.00 per day until they purge themselves of the contempt and (5) issue an arrest 
warrant or writ of bodily attachment 
 On August 29, 2025, the Judgment Debtors filed a response to the Judgment Creditor’s 
Response to Judgment Creditor’s First Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production in Aid 
of Execution (DE 330).  
  The Court has conducted a de novo review of the entire file and the record herein and no 
objections have been filed.  
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that: 
1) The Report is AFFIRMED IN PART.  The Court affirms the award of attorney’s 
fees and costs in the amount of $1,732.50.  
2) The Court finds that the Judgment Debtors have made a good faith attempt to 
comply with their discovery obligations and therefore have PURGED their 
contempt. As a result, the motion for contempt is DENIED.  In so ruling, the 
Court is not determining the sufficiency or adequacy of the discovery responses.  
3) The Court will separately issue Judgment for attorney’s fees and costs. 
DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers at West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County, 
Florida, this 3rd day of September, 2024.
