Contempt/Rule Nisi Petitions

Contempt/Rule Nisi Petitions

Often times Contempt Rule Nisi petitions occur when an individual is not honoring their side of the bargain. Whether it is a spouse not paying child support, violating the terms of visitation, or refusing to make alimony/spousal-support payments (to name a few), it is important to have a skillful lawyer to ensure agreements and/or judgments are being followed. If your ex-spouse or not so significant other is not complying with court-ordered requirements, don't just lie down and take it. There are many ways to ensure these obligations are met. In addition, often times Dixon Law can not only obtain retribution, but also procure attorney's fees from the opposing party.

In Alabama, Contempt/Rule Nisi Petitions involve filing a claim against a former spouse and/or parent for failure to comply with a court order. Below is a list of issues commonly involved in Contempt Rule Nisi Petitions:
