I need your feedback. I divorced 5 years ago. Bad attorney, gave up everything to Ex-husband. Couldn't meet one of terms of divorce cash to Ex with 10 days of signing papers. Put in jail for contempt of court failure to pay. Was able to sell off land and pay but this is on my background record and has caused me to lose a much needd job as well as a denial of unemployments, shoud this be in my background. I thought divorce was not criminal offense. Please give me feedback please

I have been thought a never ending nightmare of a divorce. My husband left my children and I in 2004, in 2005 he served me personally with divorce papers. We went to court in May 2005 and I agreed to all his wishes and wants. After all was over that day in court and the judge pounded the gavel, I looked at my attorney and asked "is it over, am I divorced?" he stated "yes". Well, less than a week later I received a fax from my attorney stating there was some type of "procedural error" the attorneys failed to get the judge to sign. So nothing is final that took place in court. This allowed by now ex-husband to change his mind on the settlement and terms. One of the original terms was that I was to pay him 80K for his part in our marital home by December 2005 and I agreed to this the original day of court. In his new terms he wanted $50K within 10 days after signing and I consulted my attorney and he ask me if I thought I could produce the money just to get rid of him and go on. Of course, silly me I said yes, I think I can. Well guess what, I couldn't within that time frame. I was cited for contempt of court and placed in jail. I spent 4 day and 5 nights in jail until I could make some financial arrangements to get him the $50K. I do not see how a procedural error could go against me and change all the original settlements the first day of court, the day I was told I was divorced. This comptempt of court issue is today following me around. I was just fired from a new job because they did a background report and this showed up on my records. I have owned a financial company for 8 years and 4 years since the divorce and each year I have to be fingerprinted. The first year is 2006 this showed up and my new attorney called the banking dept. and explained to them that this was an issue that occurred from a divorce proceeding and that it should not be showing up on my background report and they disregarded the matter and there was never a problem in the years that followed when I was fingerprinted. In the depressed mortgage industry I decided to put my l
