What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
Per parenting plan ex-wife was to have child from July 1 through July 21 and August 1 through August 21, with him returning to me (custodial parent) from July 21-July 31. She did not show up to pick him up for either visit. I made alternate plans for him (camp, visit relatives, etc).
Today I was served with contempt papers stating that I did not let her have her "weekends" (during the school year she has him the 2nd & 4th weekends of each month). Since I had made other arrangements for him, he was unavailable when she called (24 hours or less from the time she wanted to see him).
Am I actually in contempt? Does she get to pick and choose when she takes him?
She could have had him for 6 weeks and passed, and wants to pick and choose when she gets him. Isn't that why we have a parenting plan to follow?
