ENFORCEMENT OF FAMILY LAW COURT ORDERS
Family law courts usually issue court orders for alimony and for child custody and support during a divorce. These court orders require one party to perform certain duties or to have certain rights after the divorce. Failure to comply with the terms of a court order can cause the other party to suffer undue hardship.
The Hobson Law Firm can help you request enforcement of a court order if the other party is not fulfilling his or her duty or if the other party is interfering with your right to custody or visitation. You will need to approach the court and submit a request for enforcement. If the court determines that the other party has been delinquent in paying the support that he or she was ordered to pay, or that the other party is interfering with your right to custody or visitation, then the court could step in and enforce your court order. The other party will be penalized for his or her actions and will be required to repay what is owed. The only exception may be if he or she is unemployed and unable to make support payments.
