I just wondered really what the reality of a mother not complying with the courts contact order being forced or punished is??
My partners ex has so far not complied at all, not handing children over not attending contact sessions, not even responding to her solicitor. we have written to the judge and got an earlier court date but what is likely to happen.
It seems all very well that we write to the court and get earlier hearings but once that hearing is finished she's likely to continue as she has done the last 2 times.
Is there anything moving forward that we can do about it?? Someone mentioned at weekend that the judge can order she hands over the children and arrange thru the courts that someone official goes to go the children to make sure she is there but that sounds a bit far fetch to me.
I just can't believe my partner pays for his kids paid for court (and solicitors previously) and would get in to trouble if didn't carry out his maintenance payments whilst working yet she can break the order continuously surely there must come a time when she is punished otherwise what's the point in carrying on??
Thanks
