- Q. My ex wife mother of my children is trying to move out of state with my kids. I live in Kentucky. What are my options?
- A: Hello,
If you already have an open custody case, you will need to file a motion requesting the Court to enter an order prohibiting the kids from moving out of state.
If you do not have a custody action open, you will also need to file a petition, then the above mentioned motion once the action has been successfully served.
- Q. How do you file a contempt order in Kentucky family court pro se?
- A: File a motion for contempt and cite the order the parent is violating. You can find any available self help forms online on the Kentucky website. You can also visit the Jefferson county family court clerks office and request the same.
