Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio
back in august i obtained custody of my son and gave his mother more parenting time then what i had for visitation but she continues to tell our 4 yr old son that im taking him away from her and trying to keep him from her and that she is going to court or waiting to hear from the courts to get him back. is she in contempt?
1 Answer from Attorneys
In Ohio, whether or not someone is in contempt depends upon the wording of the court's orders. A violation of the court's order is contempt and if her actions violate the court's order (and it sounds like it would since most court orders usually say something about each parent not speaking badly about the other to the children) then you should bring a contempt action against her. However, you will have the burden of proof to show that she has violated the court order.
