Most violations of divorce orders involve child support, custody, and visitation. These can include failure to pay child support or hindering possession and access of the children. However, violations can include any aspect of a divorce agreement, from property division to spousal maintenance.
In Texas, failing to pay child support or failing to comply with visitation orders can result in fines up to $500 and/or 180 days in jail, as well as the payment of attorney fees and costs. The court can impose other punishments depending on the situation, for example if one parent deprives the other parent of visitation time, the court may order make-up visitation time and payment of attorney fees.
