What is the name of your state? GA. Hi, my husband is in the middle of a custody battle with his ex girlfriend. In march she was found in contempt of court, for not giving him 30 days notice of her intention to move out of the state, and not contacting him until almost a month afterward. The courts order her to pay a portion of his attorney fees, also, the court modified the original court order. Now the mother has to transport the child 1 time per month to the ncp residence for weekend visitation. The last provision on the new court order stated the defendant shall comply with the existing terms and conditions of old court order giving rise to this action. That simply means, follow the terms of the old court order except what has been specify change. So, the visitation times stayed the same, 7p on Friday until 7p on Sunday.
This is where the problem comes in. The mother is constantly, late bringing the child. She was on time only once, and that was because she had to meet with the Guardian ad litem. As a matter of a fact, she was early dropping off the child that day. And so when she asked my husband, if it was alright for her to come early and pick the child up, he said yes, because he knew she had to drive 5 hours back home. Since that day, she has never been early or even on time again. 2 months ago she got the child here after 11pm, and my husband told her then that this was unacceptable, but when she called and said she was on her way early my husband said ok. When the cp came to pick the child up that day, my husband said to her. "I would like to spend as much time with my child as possible, so next month if you are late, your going to have to pick our child up at the scheduled time 7pm". The next, month she was late again, this time she didn't drop the child off until after 1am Saturday morning,( almost a whole day late, as far as im concerned). My husband told her right then and there, "You will have to come pick the child up at the scheduled time 7pm", the mother just drove off. Well when Sunday came, as sure as water is wet, she call early to tell my husband she was on her way. He replied " don't come to my house before 7pm" the mother just hung up the phone on him. About an hour later at like 3pm, the POLICE, were knocking at our door. This women made a false police report, by, telling the police my husband wouldn't give her her child back. WHAT A CROCK *#*!. My husband simply showed them the court order, and they had no choice but to tell her to leave our premises, and don't come back until 7pm. When she came at 7pm, there were no police with her, my husband put his child in the car seat in moms car, and they drove off without incident. Is this contempt of a court order or what. Can this be looked at as interference with visitation? If my husband takes her to court for all of this, do you think the court will grant him temp custody until the custody trial comes up?What is the name of your state?
