The moving party mother brought a contempt motion against the responding party father for withholding her parenting time under a prior court order.
The father had discovered the mother unresponsive in bed with empty vodka bottles while the children were in her care, prompting him to remove the children and call 911.
The court dismissed the contempt motion, finding the father's actions were justified, protective of the children, and not a willful or deliberate breach of the order given the mother's history of severe alcoholism.
