Rule for Contempt

About this resource

This form helps you ask the court to hold someone in contempt for violating a prior court order. It can be used when someone disobeys a judgment about custody, visitation, child support, or any other court-ordered obligation. You’ll need to provide details about the original judgment and how it was violated. The completed form must be printed, signed, and filed with the Clerk of Court.
