| Guideline Support |
|
| Contempt of court is the
open display of disrespect or disruptive behavior
in court. It is also the penalty for a party's
willful and continuing failure to obey a valid
court order. In California marital or domestic
partnership dissolution cases, each instance
of contempt can be punished by a jail term
of five days. Multiplied by other factors
such as six months of failure to make child
support payments, the penalties for a contempt
finding can be very severe. If you believe
that the other party in your divorce case
is guilty of contempt, or if you're facing
contempt proceedings yourself, contact our
office for reliable advice and representation. |
|
| The California Family Law
Summons form served with the petition at the
beginning of the divorce case restrains both
spouses or partners from certain actions without
the other party's consent or a court order.
The restraining orders cover such actions
as: |
|
 |
Moving
a child of the marriage out of state
|
|
Changing the terms
of any insurance policy or coverage
|
|
Transferring or encumbering
any community or separate property |
|
Making any extraordinary
expenditure without giving the other
party five days' |
| |
advance notice |
|
| |
The intentional failure
of any of these can be punished by contempt
of court and a corresponding jail term.
Our office can also use Contempt motions to
help enforce the terms of temporary child
support or spousal support orders, financial
disclosure obligations, and any other interim
order of the court. Contempt motions can also
be used in post-divorce enforcement actions,
such as those concerning a failure to pay
back child support or evasion of child support
recovery efforts. |
