Navigating child custody agreements can be challenging, especially when one party fails to adhere to court-ordered terms. If you find yourself in a situation where the other parent is violating the child custody order, a Petition for Contempt may be the legal remedy you need. At Wenger Law, our dedicated child custody lawyers are here to help you understand and pursue Petitions for Contempt in Pennsylvania.
Understanding Petitions for Contempt
A Petition for Contempt is a legal tool that allows a parent to address situations where the other parent is not complying with the terms of a child custody order. These violations can include:
- Denial of Visitation: If the custodial parent refuses to allow the non-custodial parent court-ordered visitation.
- Interference with Custody: When one parent interferes with the other parent’s lawful custody rights or attempts to change the child’s residence without court approval.
- Failure to Pay Child Support: If the non-custodial parent fails to meet their child support obligations as outlined in the custody order.
