Technically, you should have had an Satisfaction of Judgment signed and filed at the time you made the payment to alert the court that you had complied with the order. But, her remedy is to file a motion with the court. I doubt a judge is going to make you pay an additional $1,500 if you testify that you paid it and she waited 14 years to try to collect (which supports your position that you did make the payment).
If she does file a motion, give me a call and we can help you resolve it. In the meantime, I would not make a voluntary payment. If you decide to, make sure you get her to sign a Satisfaction.
