Contempt of Court?

Is having to run all over the county to pick up children on the weekend instead of at the custodial parents house considered contempt of court when the divorce decree specifically say she will have them ready to be picked up at her residence at 6:00pm. Also maybe one child is not there and you don't know until you go pick them up that they are staying with a friend that night and your supposed to pick the child up from the friend's house the next day. Just wondering what anyone else thought. It is an ongoing problem every weekend. This is in Texas

Look at it in simple terms.. a court has ordered someone to do something.. sometimes a certain way. If that person fails in anyway or deviates from that order or instruction, then they are basically telling the court to get lost, I am ignoring your order and doing my own thing.

That, is contempt of court...

There is an order in place to have the children ready at 6pm at her place.. she is neither informing you of changes or having the kids ready.. so she is ignoring that court order and doing her own thing. Now, if you were to call her at 6pm Sunday and say that she can have the kids back, you just dropped them off at the local 7-11.. then she would be pissed and you also would be in contempt.

Document everything and then file an order to show cause and drag her arse back into court..
