That department is then responsible for the case until the bench warrant is dismissed when the case is, in turn, returned to the assigned case manager. The FOC is required to enforce parenting time ordered by the court. The Kent County Friend of the Court uses 10 days to allow for weekends, holidays or other processing time delays within the office. There are areas of parenting time which are not always specifically addressed in the parenting time order. Father's Day shall be spent with Father and Mother's Day shall be spent with Mother.
Holidays take priority over all other parenting time.
The FOC follows the language of the Health Care provisions in each Order. Depending on the Order, some may specifically state which party must carry health insurance. Others like Paternity and Support Judgements, which are usually the same, may require both parties to carry health care insurance. These Orders are enforced as written. The other party is not following the court Order and is not carrying health care insurance.
