Re: Allegation of Noncompliance of Divorce Decree

There is much more information needed to to properly answer your questions. However, based on the limited information you provided, I'll give it a shot.

If your former spouse has filed a contempt (rule to show cause) action against you, you certainly need to be sure to get an experienced family law attorney to defend yourself.

If you believe that he/she is also in contempt of the prior order(s), you can certainly file a contempt action against him/her as well.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
