Plaintiff lives in Bibb County and has filed Petition for Modification of Child Custody in Cobb County (custodial parents residence). Original court order is of Fulton County. Can contempt action be filed along with Answer when responding to Petitioner's Complaint in Cobb County? Or must Defendant file Contempt separately in Fulton County?
Answer
If a jurisdiction has the right to hear a modification, it has the right to hear contempt issues. Before filing an answer, I urge you to retain an attorney. Modifications and contempts are not simple procedures if you do not know the law.
