Seller won’t sign EM release

[Nathan H.]

Hi BP community!

I’m looking to see what options I might have to get my EM back. 

I terminated the contract, 100% clean termination for a legit reason based on a contingency in a signed contract. The seller is totally unresponsive and it has been about 2 weeks since I terminated. The seller is a mess, they’re totally unorganized, going through a divorce and take a minimum of 3 days to respond to anything, so this isn’t super surprising. 

Any advice on getting the EM back, assuming I will not be able to get the seller to sign the release? I’m sure this varies from state to state. The property and all parties are in Colorado.

Thanks!
