It is possible that you would be held in contempt for this. The proper way to handle this situation is to file a petition to modify the custody order. If the situation is emergent and you can't await a court's decision on the petition to modify, then a petition for special relief should be filed.

You should consult the lawyer that helped you get your custody order asap to review these issues.
