I live in Arizona.....if you have court paperwork documenting when you are to have your daughter....you call the police and they will go and get her. He is "kidnapping"....

I also live in AZ (Tucson) and I am pretty sure you just need to show up with the cops. He is breaking a court order.... Just make sure you have your paper work with you. Good luck!

I live in WI, but think the advise below is good. You should see if you have a family resource center where you live. Or call the courthouse to see if they have judicare program. Both have programs to help you get legal help if you qualify. If not check with your local library, sometimes they have nights the law student come in and give free legal advise- ours here is called Free Legal Clinic. They do it once a month. Also the clerk of courts can't give you legal advise, but they are supposed to help you find the correct forms for what you need. I have even gone through the phone book and found attorneys that say free consult and talked to them to get advise. Sometimes they can point you in the right direction. Your ex is in legal violation of your court order. Here where I live the police don't like to get involved and I always get the run a round about which district I should be calling since we live in different counties. So, when you file your papers, make sure you are going through the same county you got married/divorced in. Even if the police don't/won't help you, I always go down and make a report so that I have evidence on file. Hope some of this is helpful..

This is NY laws but it would be worth checking into it.When I went to court the judge would ask us if we could aford a lawyer and we would say no the the court would give me one that the state would pay for Yes there is more paper work but You need a lawyer cause the Ex nows that he can get away with out letting you see your daughter.Talk to a lawyer for a free consiltation and ask him what is best for your case that is what I did and the lawyer may tell you to tell the judge that you talked to who ever and that lawyer may be yours for the states help.In NY after the age of 13 the child can also have rights of making the decision of what they want to do and the courts will go along with there wishes and the child has a lawyer of there own for free it's called a law gardian the child's law gardian has the most say of what is going to happen out of all the problems you are having that person will be your best friend to get everything straighten out...good luck

You need to contact your local law enforcement agency to see if they will enforce a civil order. If they will have them escort you to pick up the child. You also need to file contempt paperwork. Contemp of court is everywhere and it means he disobeyed an order from the judge. Go to your circuit clerks office and they can tell you where to get the paperwork and how to fiel it.Make sure you have your custody papers and paperwork from your last court date with you when you go. Also start keeping a log/calendar noting when he refuses to let you see her and your conversations with him. Good luck hon.

I'm not sure about Arizona, but in Kansas when my ex rufused to let me see my son all I had to do was take the cops over with my court order for visitation. The police have to inforce the order or take him in for going againist it. I hope it works out for you!
