A custody order is not a restaurant menu where you pick the parts you like and ignore the rest. 😅⚖️
When a parent repeatedly disregards an existing custody order, the situation can create frustration, uncertainty, and unnecessary conflict.
In Pennsylvania, custody orders are legally enforceable. Depending on the circumstances, willful violations may lead to contempt proceedings and court-imposed consequences.
But not every disagreement or schedule disruption automatically constitutes contempt. The language of the order, the facts, and the reasons for noncompliance matter.
If you’re dealing with repeated custody violations, document what happened and seek appropriate legal guidance rather than escalating the dispute.
At Jones & Associates Law, PC, we help parents understand custody enforcement and the legal options available to them. Call us at 610-874-1900
