Re: Keep A child from seeing a parent
If this is based upon an agreement from a divorce that became a judgement you are in contempt of court. This can result in your ex-wife going to family or supreme court and filing a petition to find you in contempt. The consequences of this can be a fine, jail, and even a change in custody of the children or several other sanctions from the court.
