Re: what are my rights
You certainly should be able to contest the petition to enforce the order in the other state but you would be well advised to consult with a attorney knowledgeable regarding family law matters in the state where you now reside.
This person will be able to advise you as to your rights and the time frames in which you
must take action in order to protect those rights.
