The orders for vistation and parenting plan finally signed by Judge.
In the order no step-parent allowed to physically correct children. The last line “if not followed will be in contempt”. Three weeks later step-parent broke this section of order. Contacted attorney and they want to do a warning letter. My questions: can this letter be used in Court if this happens again? Can I send this letter myself to the Judge? Can I send to Clerk of Courts and state add this to my case file? I want to file a motion for contempt and am at a loss as to why a warning letter is recommended. If the warning letter can be used, then fine but doesn’t this defeat the purpose of the orders? Won’t this signal to my ex that I will not do anything and other parts of order can be broken? If this continues would I be better off calling the police when orders are broken and can I call them? If I can call police how is this handled? What is the process after I call them in?
