My Husband was given temp custody of his eight year old intell they go back to court. The bio mom refused to hand over the child. Bio mom is on drug's and we fear for the child. Would you take her to court for comtempt of court? I told him it would show her to be unwilling to co-parent with my husband. The courts dont like that. That it will work in his faver at the hearing. What do you think??

we had an officer with us when we went to get her. The officer said that it was up to him if he would enforce it or not. We also told him that she has been hiding the child, took her out of the county and will be taking her out of state on the 2nd. That we were lucky to get this address.

She told the officer she wanted to stay with mom because mom said when they move she can have a pony and puppy.

Legally, it's within your rights to to hold her for contempt of the the court's order, and your husband stands a high chance in the future to have permanent custody of the child.
HOWEVER, this only solves the problem superficially. The bio mum, has to know why this is happening to her. Becoming a parent, is a great responsibility. She must learn from this event, that she is not just responsible for herself, but the people around her. It is only when she has come to terms with herself, then the matter will be resolve.
As for yourself and your family, pls take this opportunity to also look deep within yourself and really ask this question.
Whether can you bring happiness to this child, even if he/she decides to go back to the bio mum in the future.
I really hope that thru this difficult time, you would be able to find pull through together with you loved ones, and become a much stronger and happier person.

The mother is not in contempt of court if she has not disobeyed the order that was previously set.
If she is suspected to be on drugs, the ftaher must conduct an investigation and file for FULL custody.
These two orders are seperate cases and the courts do not merge several filings into one case.

If you truly fear for the child's safety and well being the of course you must get the law and courts involved. What is most important in all of this is what is best for the children. All too often parents get caught up in hurting the other parent and forgets what is most important in all of this ... the children.
My suggestion ... seek legal assistance right away.

You bet your *** and post haste!!! What you can do right now is call the police. You show them the court paperwork indicating that your husband is to have temporary custody and they will go with you to her home to retrive the child. While they are there, have them ask her about her drug problem. You are well within your rights here. Get the kid away from her NOW.

wow you should use spell check or go back to high school or something. But yes you should take her to court if you honestly think she is on drugs, but don't do it if this is just one of those "I hate her because he was with her first" kind of things.
