Grounds for Contempt
Contempt of court is typically a consequence of failing to comply with a court order. If a party is found to be in contempt, they may be given a less favorable judgement or even issued a fine or other penalty.
The opposing party may be found in contempt of court for several reasons, including:
- Stopping spousal support/alimony payments
- Selling property that was awarded to you in the divorce decree
- Refusing to reimburse you for out-of-pocket medical expenses for your child
- Refusing to follow the terms of your child visitation or child custody agreement
