Legal Question in Family Law in California
When bringing "Contempt of Court" charge and we go to the scheduled hearing, will the Judge just dismiss the contempt charge if it does not meet the requirements or will he just continue it? Also, in an "Agreement" how do I prove that a specific date of payment was agreed to but when the Respondent's Attorney wrote it up in a short form and did not put the specific date (even though I kept telling her I wanted the date included) she did not put the date in and now says her client doesn't have to pay me by a specific date and he could pay me at the end of the month instead of the beginning? Last two (2) months he paid on the 6th and before that 03/31/2014 instead of 04/03/2014 at the latest.

The court will not continue the matter if it finds that the elements of contempt are not met. Are you still wasting time trying to hold someone in contempt of an agreement?
