It is possible to enforce the court order by invoking the power of contempt when a spouse refuses to:

  • Meet his or her child support obligations
  • Allow the other parent visitation with the child
  • Make ordered spousal maintenance payments

A judge can order a person to pay a fine or even send him or her to jail. A court can also clarify an order. Depending on circumstances, a party can use several forms to enforce an order, including arrears and garnishment (of wages).
