Parenting Time Enforcement
Packet No. 10
Instructions
**Notice regarding enforcement of orders from other courts. If the order is out of
state, you will also need the following forms: (1) Child Custody and Parenting Time
Judgments from Other States, Information on Enforcement; and (2) Petition for Order to
Show Cause re: Enforcement of Parenting Plan. Please ask for the forms from the staff at
Dissolution Resource Services. If the order is out of county, you will need to file a
request to transfer the case to Marion County in the original county (that the order was
granted).
STEP 1:
*Fill out the Motion and Affidavit for Order to Show Cause re: Enforcement of Parenting
Plan (MOTION) (If your case involves an out of state order, you will be filing a
PETITION). Don’t sign your name until you are in the presence of a notary public or
court clerk. The case heading is the same as it was when visitation or parenting time was
ordered if it was a Marion County Case. For enforcement of out of state orders, you are
the petitioner.
*Fill out the Order to Show Cause (ORDER). Don’t fill out the bottom of page two.
*Attach a certified copy of the order or judgment that established the parenting time or
visitation you are now asking the court to enforce to the original MOTION (or
PETITION) and ORDER you just filled out.
*Make two copies of the MOTION (or PETITION) and one copy of the ORDER. Keep
one copy of each for your records. On the second copy of the MOTION (or PETITION),
sign your name where it says, “I certify this is a true copy.”
STEP 2:
*File the original MOTION (or PETITION) and ORDER at the Accounting window on
the first floor of the courthouse. A copy of the order or judgment establishing parenting
time or visitation must be attached to your MOTION (or PETITION) and ORDER.
Accounting will assign a case number if there isn’t one already.
*Fill in the case number on your copy if you don’t have one already.
STEP 3:
*Check back with the court to see if the ORDER was signed. Obtain a court certified
copy of the signed ORDER through the records department on the first floor of the
courthouse.
*Have the other party served with the second copy of your MOTION (or PETITION) and
a copy of the ORDER the judge signed. You cannot serve the papers yourself. The
Marion County Sheriff’s Office will serve papers for you, or you can go to a private
process server. Make sure the person who completes service files a proof of service with
the court, detailing how service was made.
STEP 4:
*Sign up for the Children Cope with Divorce (COPE) class through the YWCA within 15
days of when you filed the MOTION (or PETITION) and ORDER.
*Wait 14 days from the date of service for the other party to respond. If a response is
filed, your case will be assigned to a judge. If a response is not filed, the court may grant
the relief you requested. (See Step 5).
Your case will be referred to mediation unless that requirement is waived by the judge.
You may file a “Motion and Affidavit for Waiver of Mediation” (available through
Dissolution Resource Services) if you want that requirement waived. This should be done
at the time you file your initial MOTION (or PETITION) and ORDER. The judge will
only waive mediation if you show the judge there is a good reason to. If your case is not
resolved in mediation, it will be set for hearing in front of the assigned judge.
STEP 5:
If the other party doesn’t file a response after being served, you may ask the court to enter
judgment in your favor. Fill out the Motion and Affidavit in Support of Judgment and the
Judgment re: Enforcement of Parenting Plan.
The section of the judgment labeled “Required Information About the Parties” refers to
information that Oregon law may require the parties to provide. Oregon law requires the
parties to provide the following information regarding each party if the judgment contains
a provision regarding child support: residence, mailing or contact address, social security
number, telephone number, driver license number and the address and telephone number
of all employers of each party. In addition, Oregon law requires that the following
information be provided in all money judgments: (1) the name and address of each
judgment creditor (the person who is owed money) and his or her attorney, and (2) the
following information about the judgment debtor (the person who owes money): address,
date of birth, Social Security number, driver license number and state of issuance, name
of attorney, and (3) the name of any person or public body known by the judgment
creditor, other than the judgment creditor’s attorney, who is entitled to any portion of a
payment made on the judgment. You may file your papers with the Court for
consideration by a judge. Check back in a week or so to see if the judgment was signed.
