Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

I signed a consent no contact order that my wife initally filed against me. In it I was to have physical custody of one child and every weekend visitation with the other. My wife took the other out of the country and, thus, denied me four weekends of visitation. Can my wife be cited with contempt in Iowa? What would most likely be her punishment if so?

If she is haled into court for contempt the usual remedy is that she'll get to purge the contempt. It's not self executing-you'll have to file on her.
