Enforcement of Custody Order

An Enforcement of Custody Order is a legal document filed by a party to enforce the terms of a previously issued custody order. The enforcement may be necessary if the other party is not complying with the terms of the order, such as failing to follow the parenting time schedule or making decisions without the other parent’s consent. The court may impose sanctions or penalties for non-compliance with the order, such as fines or even imprisonment in severe cases. An Enforcement of Custody Order helps ensure that both parties are following the court-ordered custody arrangement and that the child’s best interests are being protected.
