My husband's ex wife moved to PA almost 2 years ago. They have 4 children together, and my husband has residential custody of 3 of the 4. The 4th child now resides in PA with her mother. Since the move to PA, it has been increasingly difficult for my husband to see/speak to his daughter. I drafted a motion for parenting time (yes, I did it myself!) and he filed it with the clerk of courts. The judge approved the parenting schedule submitted. I then drafted a letter (signed by my husband) mailed certified return receipt asking her to comply with the court order, and giving her 2 dates to chose from to start the summer visitation. The deadline date expired and I have drafted a motion for contempt that my husband filed and we have a hearing date in august. They were married and divorced in ohio, where my husband and I still reside. (and where all the hearings are currently taking place). My question is, if she is found in contempt, will the long arm of the law reach to PA, or is this just another bench warrant that she may get caught on "if" she gets a traffic violation or something that alerts the local authorities. I can almost guarantee that she will not show for the hearing. She hasn't for any of the others.
