Legal Question in Family Law in California
Contempt Hearing
How can you challenge the decision of a judges decision regarding a contempt hearing for breaking a custody order. The case was thrown out for failure to provide proof of acceptance, but the county clerk is the office that mailed the hearing notice to the Defendant.

Re: Contempt Hearing
Depending on what the court did you can either refile, unlikely, or file a notice of appeal. Appeals are rarely successful.
