When someone does not do what the judge sais....?

Question

ok.Court was a month ago!It was agreed upon that parental rights would be terminated & custody be given to me.We were never married.HE refused evaluations,refused dna,refused councelling,cancelled his order for partial custody & had the judge put in the paperwork that if I gave him 600 dollars,he would sign off his rights.In court,he did not have a lawyer present,& said he wanted to go by the agreement.Now,he has yet to sign anything as the check STILL sits @ the lawyers even though he ws notified!After 3 years of fighting for my 4 year old twins, this decision was made because of violence and a pfa order.WIll this automatically be in my favor even if he thinks this is a jokefest and never signs anything? I know he'll never go to jail because he gets away with EVERYTHING.I was given full sole legal custody but I think alls he is going to do is insult and piss off what decision was made in court that day.This was HIS idea.Also this is what he wanted in mediation

Answer 1

Sounds like you're in great shape. He won't show up - you'll get custody and protective order.

What you might do is sue him for some civil matter, like rent or your lost cd collection of something else - he won't show up for that, now you can get a judgement and his attention will be spent evading the sherrif and collection instead of hasseling you.

Answer 2

He can not ignore a court order. Have your attorney file contempt proceeding against him. Depending on the judge he could be in jail immediately after the hearing.

Answer 3

You should ask this 1 in the law section. You might get a better answer from a real lawyer if you ask in that section.

Answer 4

It is called "Contemp of Court" and if your lawyer isn't moving on this, you need a new lawyer.........................
