Common Custody Issues
Child custody orders are designed to provide stability and protect the best interests of the child. Unfortunately, disputes or other personal issues can lead a parent to violate the terms of the court order. When that happens, you have enforcement options available. A seasoned child custody enforcement lawyer in Jacksonville could assist you in the following situations.
Refusing To Return a Child
One of the most common custody issues occurs when a parent refuses to return the child after their scheduled parenting time. This not only disrupts the child’s routine but can also be considered a direct violation of the custody order. Courts treat this type of conduct very seriously.
Violating the Terms of the Custody Order
Even when a child is returned on time, parents may still disobey the custody order in other ways. This can include denying visitation, ignoring exchange locations, or making unilateral decisions that the order does not allow.
