If you already have a court order in place, and the other party is refusing to abide by it, it will first be necessary to ascertain the reasons why. Once these reasons have been considered, if it is appropriate, we will then inform the other parent/legal guardian that if they do not start abiding by the court order immediately, we will be making an application for enforcement of the court order. The court will then consider the parties' positions and whether the court order should be enforced, or whether other steps may be necessary. If the court consider enforcement of the order is appropriate, we can ask for sanctions to be made against the other parent/legal guardian for breach of the order. The sanctions may be: 1. A fine; 2. Unpaid work; 3. Seizure of their assets; or 4. Imprisonment.
