What happens if you missed your court date for child visitation?

Missing a divorce court date may have catastrophic consequences. The court may go ahead and grant the present spouse everything that that spouse has asked for. This could include all property, and full custody of any children. When one is unable to make it to court, it is best to call the courthouse and explain the situation in advance.

∙ 14y agoWhen this happens, you will have the opportunity to contest the default judgment against you if you can show the court good cause for why you were not present the day of the hearing. This is because the court sees some unfairness towards the spouse who, for one reason or another, was unable to appear at the divorce trial, who now wants to contest it. Because of this, most states have a procedure through which a spouse who has been divorced by default can contest the divorce, in certain limited cases.

Can a child at 11 years old have a say to not want to se his farther?
The child is always free to express their wishes, either in court or by writing a letter to the judge in charge of their custody/visitation. If the judge feels the child provides valid reasons why they no longer wish to visit their father, the visitation order may be modified. However, court ordered visitation must continue until that happens, if it happens. Otherwise, the mother could be found in contempt of court and fined or even jailed for their child's failure to obey court ordered visitation.

No. A child does not have the right to ignore court ordered visitation. A parent who assists the child would be in contempt of court.
Ex no show child?
If you have a court order file a motion for contempt. If no court order, get one for visitation quickly, then you can easily enforce your visitation rights. It might be a good idea to call the local sheriff and have a "well" check done on the child to see if everything is OK. It will also let the mother/father know that you are concerned about the child and will also let her know that you are noting for the record, a missed visitation.

What age can child opt out of visitation in state of Idaho?
18. Until then, if the parent has court-ordered visitation, it has to be followed. If there is a legitimate reason the child does not want to visit the parent, the custodial parent can petition the court to revise the visitation order. Be aware the court will not deny a parent the right to visitation without a very goodreason.
I have a court order to hand over my child for access with her father. what happens when i break this with good reason?
You had better have a very good reason. Many states take a dim view of denial of visitation. If you think the NCP is/could be harmful to the child in some way you need to ask the court to modify visitation - maybe supervised visitation, or public places only.
What happens if the father of the child is court ordered to pay child support and refuses?
A court order for child support is not a court order for visitation. These are 2 different issues and needs to be petitioned for separately. If there is a court order for visitation she can not say no without breaking it and can then be reported to the court and even lose custody if repeated. Child support is not a must for visitation. The court cares about the child having the right to both parents so if one can not pay at the moment does not mean they are not allowed to see each other. There is after all many mothers on welfare so technically they can not pay for their child either but they have custody. If there is no court order I suggest you go to court to get one.
In North Carolina when a father has no visitation does he still have to pay child support?

Can you force child visitation?
I think you mean if the visiting parent has a court ordered visitation. If the parent has court ordered visitation then yes the child is forced to be with the parent, that is what the court order is for. If the parent has no court order than legally the answer is "no" but i think if both parents agreed to a time for one of them to spend time with their child the child being a minor must do as the parents tell him or her to do.
Your ex wants child support but you can not have visitation?
In the US, child support and visitation are two separate things. You are legally responsible for financially supporting your child rather you have visitation or not. If your ex refuses to allow visitation then you need to petition for court-ordered visitation. If you obtain that and the ex still refuses, then s/he is in violation of a court order and there are consequences for that. If, on the other hand, you don't have visitation because the court refuses to allow it (for whatever reason)...well, that's a different issue.
Can one legal gaurdian keep a child from the other legal gaurdian in Arizona for not paying child support?
Absolutely not. Visitation rights are decided by the court. Unless the court changes the visitation order, non-payment of child support is not grounds to withhold legal visitation rights.
