My ex wife is in contempt of court for a few different reasons. I a Pro Per as I am representing myself.
I went to the Family Law Court House to file Contempt charges and they sent me to a different floor. When I got there they said you have to go to the Criminal Court buidlng. So, off I went and they told me that it would have to be filed at the Family Law Court house. I tried to hire a para legal but she gave me the run around and said she "might" get to it in a month.
I am more than able to file if I just knew how....Please direct me
