Answering a AntiHarrasment/No contact order

My ex, who has Temporary custody of my 15 yr old son, has filed a bogus No contact order so i can't talk to my son right now. It is only because my son has asked to come back and live with me and now I have to answer the no contact order before going to court. How do I do this? it is in Pierce County Courthouse.

Re: Answering a AntiHarrasment/No contact order

Procedurally your situation sounds a bit strange. Usually when a marriage is dissolved a permanent parenting plan is entered, so I wonder about the Temporary Custody, was this a modification action? Is there a hearing scheduled on the modification of the parenting plan? Is this no contact order entered under the dissolution action or separately. The way I do it for clients is item by item admit or deny and then I attach documents to support the remedy you want. As a preliminary matter until it is investigated the person making the allegations often prevails in the short run, but if the allegations are clearly false and used to interfere in the parental relationship, in the long run it can be detrimental to the parent making the allegations in the petition for no contact. You really should consider consulting with an attorney to assist you in putting your case together.
