Contempt Motion

A Contempt Motion is a legal document filed by the custodial parent requesting the court to hold the non-custodial parent in contempt for failing to comply with a child support order. The motion typically includes information about the specific violations of the order, such as missed payments or failure to provide required information, and may request the court to impose sanctions or penalties, such as fines, jail time, or suspension of licenses. The purpose of the motion is to enforce the child support order and to compel compliance by the non-custodial parent.
