Yes, as that's interpretive and 60% of mothers use it to deny the fathers access. If there's a problem, file it with the court.

Contempt of court of custody agreement?
If the mother does not give the children to the father on his court appointed scheduled time then she is contempt of court. If the father does not bring the children back when the court document specifies that he has to, then he is contempt of court. If the father does not pick the children up on his court appointed scheduled time, he is NOT in contempt of court. It is the father's right, not his obligation. If the father is paying child support then he is not obligated to do more. To go about filing for contempt you have to have a lawyer file a document stating one parent was in contempt of court. This costs around $200 (in the state of Iowa at least). Once the document is filed the parent will be served and have to appear in court stating why the kids were not given on the scheduled time. The court does not usually find the parent in contempt if this has happened just once, it usually has to happen three or more times before the parent is considered in contempt of court.

What if you are withholding information because of blackmail?
Leaving aside the fact that "blackmail" is a criminal offense in its own right, and you should report it to law enforcement, if that is going to be your defense you had better be able to produce some convincing evidence of it because you could be charged criminally with 'Obstruction of Justice' or Contempt of Court.Also:It is not contempt of court if you are being forced to withhold the evidence against your will as long as you would, absent the blackmail, have provided the evidence. To be in contempt of court, a person must intentionally of his/her own free will, refuse to do that which the court requires. The element of blackmail negates the required intent and willfulness.
