Mom Ordered to JAIL Until the Child Goes for Parenting Time

Motion to Hold Mom in Contempt for Failing to Provide for Parenting Time

In Michigan, failing to provide parenting time as outlined in a court order can result in being held in contempt of court. It is important to always have a valid reason for denying parenting time to the other parent. In the case of Claywell versus Joshua Sykes, the defendant appeared virtually on zoom despite being instructed to appear in person. The defendant cited reasons for not appearing in person, but the court reminded them to always check the notices carefully in the future. The case involves a motion filed by the defendant to hold the plaintiff in contempt for failing to provide parenting time as required. The plaintiff allegedly denied parenting time on several occasions, leading to this legal action. The court will now consider the motion and the circumstances surrounding the denial of parenting time in this case.

Mr. Sykes testified that he was denied parenting time on multiple occasions, including weekends in April and May. He mentioned that his ex-partner, Miss Finch, does not care about court orders and refuses to let him see their child, Kenley. Despite this, Mr. Sykes described a strong bond with his daughter, stating that they have a great relationship and enjoy spending time together. He also mentioned incidents of affection and closeness between them, such as hugging and sharing clothes. Additionally, Mr. Sykes expressed frustration with the ongoing denials of parenting time and isolation tactics employed by Mom. He provided evidence of harassment and non-compliance with court orders, indicating a challenging co-parenting situation.

The speaker, Mom is explaining that their child Kinley has been refusing to go for visitation with the other parent since spring break. Kinley has adamantly refused to visit and even threatened to run away and hide at her grandparents' house if forced to go. The speaker has tried to encourage reunification but Kinley's behavior has been out of the ordinary. Kinley's rejection of visitation seems to stem from her father's disapproval of her tomboyish behavior and gender dysphoria. Additionally, Kinley is approaching puberty and does not want to experience menstruation with her father. The speaker is willing to facilitate reunification but believes it should not be abrupt due to the underlying issues causing Kinley's refusal to visit. The speaker is open to any process that helps resolve the situation but wants to address the triggers causing Kinley's sudden change in behavior.

The court acknowledges the complexity of the situation and the need for a resolution that prioritizes McKinley's well-being. Ultimately, the court will review the evidence and testimony presented to make a decision on the visitation rights of McKinley. The plaintiff, Mom was found in contempt of court for repeatedly missing court-ordered makeup parenting time. Despite the plaintiff's claims that she did not know about the orders and had tried to comply, the court found that she had not followed through on the previous orders. As a result, the court held her in contempt and ordered her to be taken into custody by the county sheriff until the child could be handed over to the father for parenting time.

The court emphasized that this was not an isolated incident and had been ongoing for two and a half years, unrelated to any issues with the child's gender dysphoria. The plaintiff was informed that she needed to make arrangements for the child to be handed over to the father, and she would only be released from jail once the child was confirmed to be with him.

Additionally, the court outlined the plaintiff's parenting time schedule, including one week of custody followed by three weeks in a row before handing over the child. The plaintiff was reminded of her alternating weeks in the summer and instructed to comply with the court's orders. Ultimately, the court's decision was to enforce the parenting time schedule strictly and hold the plaintiff accountable for any violations. The plaintiff was taken into custody by the sheriff, and the court urged her to cooperate in handing over the child to the father as ordered.

in Michigan, You Cannot Object to Parenting Time Without a Court Order. If You Refuse the Other Parent Visitation Time, You Risk Being Found in Contempt of Court.

When Denying Parenting Time in Michigan, You Must Always Have a Good Cause.

No wonder the kid needs a therapist. After listening to her mother I need one .

[Decbaby]

The mom is so selfish, that she doesn’t realize how blessed the child is to have a dad that wants to be in her life. Congratulations Dad!!

[brittanyengels]

This Dad seems fun as hell. I'd totally love a Dad like that!

[tiffanykeenon]

Mom is full of it…. She just feels she can get away with it by saying “the child doesn’t wanna go”. I commend dad for holding her accountable every time she tries to pull her little shenanigans. 👏🏾👏🏾

[jemikabates]

Wow.. I’m impressed.. I wish all courts would realize that fathers are equal parents .. we as mom’s have no more rights than them.. a child has two parents!!

[MGRNDo_o]

Josh if you ever read this you are an amazing dad. Little girls need strong men like you to raise them so they know how a man is supposed to act.

[MattilynnEtter]

That was one of the best ruling I've seen in a while. It was fair and not in favor of the mother like it usually is. This is a dad that wants his child and does everything the correct way through the court and he won. So happy he will get 3 weeks straight to spend with his daughter.❤❤❤

[kayvee]

Mom has stated "My child" through the entire hearing. No mom, "Our child".

[pbg]

I can feel how hurt the dad is coming through the screen. He is heartbroken 💔

[barnhousedesignspa]

Mom is 100% alienating this child. Hopefully she'll get the picture now that this is the parents decision together, and not the child's decision to make her go.

[NonyaBiz]

Mom’s bf should be ordered to leave! He’s wearing a tank top!? Totally unacceptable for court!😂

[rpineanew]

Mom is manipulative, implying abuse. I'm so proud of the dad.

[jeanmiller]

She deserves jail time, 1 day in jail for each day he was denied his time with the child, that would teach momma Karen!

[jg]

When his chest starting pumping faster, mine did too. I've been there brotha. More than I care to admit. 12 years of fighting and I got primary custody now. Keep fighting brotha, they'll try to break you down. I know it because they did me that way too, but keep fighting. My heart goes out to you. These women try to break us, claiming lies and saying the children said it, but this judge saw past that. But judges like him are very rare.

[mimic]

It's about damn time parents are held accountable for not giving court ordered parenting time.

[xToxicNinjax]

I like how the dad refers to his child by name but the mom just calls her "the child" like she's a pawn in a game of chess

[curlybeautyblogger]

So dad shouldn't have time because the girl will have her period some time? Mom is ridiculous and daughter will grow to resent her for keeping her father away.

[CDKV]

Good for the judge! I bet you she wasn’t expecting to be jailed. I love it! Dads are just as important as moms.

[rosebattista]

Mom speaking about her daughter's menstral cycle in open court is disgusting. How horrified and humiliated the child would feel if she was aware. I hope she never knows that. Also I dont think for a minute that this dad has a problem with his daughter's gender identity. He seems to adore her. Good ruling Judge.

[marybourgeois]

RIGHT ON JUDGE!!!! Nice seeing fairness towards the
