## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Family Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | List the child-related order, its date, the people it says are bound, and the later events in the file in date order. Write no contempt paper and no application. |
| What the lawyer must review | You decide how, if at all, to enforce the order. Family Code section 290 says a judgment or order made or entered under that code may be enforced by the court by execution, the appointment of a receiver, or contempt, or by any other order the court in its discretion determines from time to time to be necessary. The section was amended by Stats. 2006, ch. 86, effective 1 January 2007. It states no elements of a breach, no reasonable-excuse test, and no list of orders that can be enforced without a finding. Section 3011 is the best-interest statute and does not supply those elements. You write any enforcement paper. |
