You may be able to file a motion with the court requesting change of child custody based on the foregoing circumstances. However, it all depends if the judge considers the violations of the mother as a basis for change of custody. Nina N. Gohari, Esq., 310-839-7700.
Re: up holding court orders
There are several things you can do. In reaching a decision on how you want to proceed you must evaluate each option. To do this, you should speak with an attorney.
If the order is specific enough, you may be able to obtain a "civil stand-by" where the police work with you to enforce the order.
