Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa
My friend, Kathy has temp guardianship of her grandson. She also has a no contact order for herself on her son, Shane and his wife, Melissa. Through the grapevine, she heard that Shane said they were given visitation for 4 days starting on Christmas day. Her concern is without being served with any papers herself should she take the chance of going to jail for not handing him over or the chance that she goes to jail for handing him over or should she just make sure she's not home Christmas morning.

It's a bit late for asking questions about Christmas morning, don't you think? A person who takes actions with legal consequences because of what she heard through the grapevine is foolish. Far better to go to the court and find out what actually was ordered, if anything.
