Rasberry Family Law Group

Contempt proceedings become necessary when one of the parties is not complying with a court order. Such violations might include financial violations (failure to pay support, uninsured medicals, tuition or other related items), failure to transfer assets or title to assets, denial of parenting time and harassment, to name a few. Contempt proceedings are quasi criminal proceedings, meaning that someone found in contempt of court can be sentenced to jail and to pay a fine. In certain cases, the violator can also be ordered to pay lawyer fees. Many cases are unfortunately characterized by ongoing violations of court orders.
