  1. UNDERSTANDING A CITATION OF CONTEMPT: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

  2. Introduction A citation of contempt is a legal tool used by courts to enforce compliance with their orders. This is particularly common in cases involving family law, such as child custody, child support, or spousal support. When an individual fails to follow a court order, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they may be issued a citation of contempt, which can result in significant legal consequences.

  3. What is a Citation of Contempt? A citation of contempt is issued when someone disobeys a court order. This could include failing to pay child support, violating custody agreements, or not adhering to visitation schedules. The purpose of this citation is to hold the offending party accountable and ensure that they comply with the court’s directives. Depending on the severity of the contempt, consequences may range from fines to jail time. 5

  4. Common Causes of Contempt in Family Law Cases In family law, contempt citations often arise from non-compliance with child custody or support orders. For instance, if a parent refuses to allow the other parent their court-ordered visitation rights, they could be held in contempt. Similarly, failing to make child support payments on time can also lead to a citation of contempt. These situations are not only stressful but can also complicate relationships between co-parents, making it essential to address them swiftly.
