Violations

#1

It sounds as if Rule 7 may be a local rule from your county. You can search on www.nccourts.org, click on the tab for local rules you should be able to find more information there.

A parenting class is a requirement before the court will hear a custody case and you can be put in jail for failing to complete the class, you should sign up as soon as possible.

I have a permanent custody hearing coming up and my STBX has not completed the parenting class. There was a contempt hearing which I do not know what the judge ordered my STBX to do. My attorney told me I did not have to go to the contempt hearing since the violation was not against me for not completing the court ordered class. Is it still possible a court can have a permanent costody hearing without my STBX completing the class?

Yes, it is possible the court can proceed.
