Q: A no contact order was placed between my husband's daughter and her mothers boyfriend. They violated it. Now what?
We called the police to perform a welfare check on the child when we obtained an unknown address by looking at my daughters phone location. We recieved confirmation from the mothers aunt that they were indeed with the boyfriend.
A:
File an emergency Request for Order (FL-300) with a Request for Emergency Temporary Order for an immediate suspension of visitation pending further hearing. Due to COVID-19 orders on the courts you should probably consult with a local attorney to find out what the local rules are regarding emergency temporary orders as each court is handling it differently due to the current crisis.
You could also file an Order to Show Cause for contempt, but that can wait until the courts open back up.
