Hello one and all
I feel I have the answer and would just like to be assured that I am correct in the following.
My Son's mother is withholding information from me in regards to my sons location of school and GP surgery.
The order of child contact I obtained instructs her to tell me this information on the 30th of July. I know this is only a day or so ago but she has made a song and dance about this for some time and continues to fob me off with " ill tell you in two weeks time."
The order states I have permission to bring the case back to court within 6 months of the order being being served if problems arise.
Please can someone confirm if I am correct in saying I need to activate a c78 enforcement document to have the court instruct her to release the details?
Thank you

Hi there
As the order states that you can take it back to court within six months if not complied with, if this is still within that time limit you can write to the court and request new directions and enclose a copy of the order.
If six months has passed then you can apply for enforcement but you would need form C79.
If it were me I would write to her formally and remind her that she is now in breach of the order and unless she supplies the information within 48 hours you will have no choice but to return it to court immediately. It might just make her realise that she needs to comply.
Best of luck
Thank you so much I am very grateful
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
If you find you have to write to the court make sure you address it to the judge that made the final order.
All the best 🙂
I have now informed the court of the breach.
What sort of time frame should I prepare for before the court create proceedings?
I understand this varies from County to county.

Hi There,
.
It can vary depending on court case load, but I would have thought 2-3 weeks.

Hello again.
The court has responded with a letter. Enclosed are x3 C2 application forms.
the letter suggests I take legal advice etc if I am not sure of the procedure. Fees are payable.
I supplied the court with a letter and the court order that clearly shows I can recall the case for 6 months.
Any ideas please?
I've been searching the Web for hours and I've no idea if the c2 form is the right form to send back.
The contact order I have says I have permission to return the case to court but the letter I received today tells me I have to pay fees for a c2?
Am I being had over here? Will I need to pay to get the original order enforced?
Is the c2 the right form?
It frustrates me the way l/p's are treated by these cash cows while children and fathers suffer.
Any help most welcome.

Hi There,
.
I would if possible go to the court with your court order and ask them for advice as to what you need to file and if you have to pay, If you can't go in person call them and ask them for clarification.

Agree with GTTS, at the end of the day if it is listed/stated in the court order that should negate the need to re-submit any application.
Send an email marked for the attention of the Judge who dealt with your case and copy in the corresponding part of the court order. They will then give directions to either come back or to file C whatever
I need to fork out another £215 to activate a c79 form.
Could you please do me a favour and tick the box that says "order for financial loss" in section 2.
Want to see if we can get you the £215 back
