Children’s well-being lies at the heart of our collective responsibility, particularly in circumstances of custody and visitation disagreements. At America Family Law Center, we strive to help families navigate these complex issues, prioritizing the child’s welfare.
In the context of family law, enforcement is a process ensuring adherence to the terms of a court order. If a party does not comply with these stipulations, it is considered a violation, leading to possible legal consequences. Texas Family Code Chapter 157 extensively covers enforcement actions, providing guidance on how these situations should be handled.
Enforcement actions, often termed court order enforcement actions, occur when one party requests the court to enforce a court order against another party. This may be due to a failure in adhering to something the order directed or due to performing an act prohibited by the order.
Consequences of a court order violation can include contempt of court, entailing possible fines, loss of parenting time with the child, jail time, and/or probation. America Family Law Center is a recognized expert in handling enforcement of child custody, visitation, and other family law matters.
Understanding what constitutes a violation is key in protecting your rights and ensuring the best interests of your child. The most common violation is a visitation violation, often occurring when the custodial or primary parent denies the non-custodial parent their allocated time with the child.
Other typical violations can include disregarding geographical restrictions, impeding access to medical records or educational information, or violating the predetermined exchange location or times. The Texas Attorney General’s website offers detailed insights into these matters.
However, each case is unique, and it is essential to seek legal advice tailored to your situation. At America Family Law Center, our team specializes in understanding and handling these issues, ensuring your child’s rights and well-being are upheld.
