To get full custody, you'll need to file a motion before the appropriate Oklahoma family law court requesting full custody. Following the motion, there'll be at least one hearing on the matter. The number of hearings will depend on why you requested full custody and the other parent's response to the motion.

Being a parent gives you the right to "seek" visitation. That means that if you cannot work out a visitation agreement with the other parent, then you MUST go to court to get a Visitation Order. A Visitation Order requires the other parent to give you visitation.

What are the steps for modifying child custody? The first step is to file a Motion to Modify Custody with the district court. The Motion will then be served upon the other parent. After being served the other parent has 15 days to file an Answer with the court.

The Oklahoma visitation form sets forth minimum visitation guidelines. A noncustodial parent can have more visitation, but not less visitation than the minimum guideline amount. In most cases, this means a noncustodial parent will have one weeknight per week with the child and overnight visits every other weekend.

If you already have a Court Order for visitation in your Divorce Decree or Paternity Decree, then you can cite your ex for Contempt of Court for denying your visitation, and you may also file a Motion to Enforce your visitation rights. The Oklahoma law on a Motion to Enforce Visitation is found at 43 O.S. 111.3.

The first step is to make sure an existing court order has been violated. Once the violation is established your attorney will prepare an Application for Contempt and set an arraignment date. At the arraignment the party charged with contempt will plead either guilty or not guilty.
