How is judicial power exercised?

To the extent the court issuing an order is recognized as legitimate, the court has power because either people agree to comply with its decisions or because the holder of a court order can get police or military to enforce the decision. A court whose decisions cannot be enforced is a nullity; it has no judicial power.

Contacted you HOW? In person? By phone? By third party?

Can you sue a judge for refusing to enforce a child visitation order without cause?

It is likely the court rendered a decision and you may have misunderstood the action that was taken. It is the primary obligation of courts to enforce court orders. A judge cannot be sued for doing her job. You can visit the court, request to see your case file and sit down and read through it. If you still have questions you need to consult with your lawyer or ask to speak with an advocate at the court.
