Officials forced way in to Stephen Moore home after failure to pay ex-wife debts

A court official accompanied by four police officers had to break into the home of Stephen Moore, Donald Trumps pick for the Federal Reserve board, after he repeatedly failed to pay debts to his ex-wife.
The group forced its way into Moores house in Virginia in May 2013, to begin the process of selling the property in order to raise $330,000 Moore owed after his divorce, according to court filings.
When the court official telephoned Moore to ask where he wanted the new key to his home to be left, Moore was very argumentative and denied that we were in his house, she said in a June 2013 motion.
The court records were reopened to the public by a judge on Friday, in response to legal action by the Guardian and other media. They were temporarily sealed this week following the publication of reports, by the Guardian and other outlets, about Moores past financial and legal problems.
Six days after the authorized break-in at his house, Moore made a long overdue payment of $150,000 to his ex-wife, Allison, the records show. She then asked the court to halt the action to sell Moores home.

the federal reserve? Refusing to pay debts to his ex wife, and then as a member of the fed. reserve, to refuse to pay savings bond debt, etc.? I know that this is far fetched, but I worry about someone's mental state in such a high profile job.
