Boise Divorce Lawyer Talks About Custodial Interference

As a Boise Divorce Lawyer I see the number of charges of custodial interference rise during the holidays.  This is often because one party or the other wants to change the holiday visitation schedule dictated in their custody decree, in their divorce decree or in their temporary orders.

Custodial interference occurs when an individual fails to comply with the order of a judge concerning the custody of their child.  That order can come from a divorce decree, a custody decree or a temporary order.  As a Boise Divorce Lawyer I feel these are tough cases.  When the custody interference occurs during the holidays it is a no win situation.  Although not always, it often is the case that one party or the other would like to spend more time with their child during the holidays and the other party is unwilling to give up the time they have to share with their child.  The problem is further complicated by the inability to get in front of  the court in a timely matter.  It is only in situations of imminent harm to the child that you can get an expedited hearing and have any hope of getting a new order prior to the holidays. 

As a Boise Divorce Lawyer I always stress the importance of complying with the orders issued by the court because when you go in to modify an order the judge will look more favorably upon you for having complied with his or her order, even if the other party was un-giving, irrational and unwilling to compromise.
