Nice to meet you, Brian. Could you please describe the legal issue you're facing?
I didn’t get your response
I apologize for the confusion earlier. Could you please clarify the legal issue you're facing so I can assist you better?
I have an open child support case. I was scheduled a hearing for motion to contempt. I missed that hearing because I never received the documents with date and time. So know I’m held in contempt because I missed the hearing and courts also added a purge payment. How do I handle this.
