A: Why do you need to do anything? You have court orders and he doesn’t comply or try to accommodate your child’s changing schedule. Is there a motion or hearing pending? You could file a motion to modify the existing orders on the grounds that the previous orders are now outdated and do not work with the child’s schedule/school schedule. The question is the same however; why do you need to do anything?
