Q: I have a court order signed by the judge stating that I get my son one week after the school year Is out,
My son is now up in my hometown and they won't let him see me what do I do it is court ordered he supposed to be with me right now it is my visitation my visit
A:
The best route is to bring a motion for contempt. Bringing the motion will require strict adherence to procedure. You will likely need an attorney to bring the motion. I would also note that, depending on the situation, this may be a situation in which you should ask for compensatory parenting time (for the time missed). This may also present an opportunity to ask for modification of the existing parenting time arrangement.
