Rule 9.01 Education and monitoring programs
A. Parent Education and Monitoring Programs.
The Court may require litigants to complete counseling, treatment, education, or monitoring programs which the Court deems appropriate with the costs of those programs allocated by order of the Court.
B. Failure to Enroll, Attend, Comply, or Complete.
Failure to enroll, attend, comply, or complete required education and monitoring programs may result in a finding of contempt of court with appropriate disposition and remedies within the discretion of the Court. Failing to enroll, comply, attend, or complete these programs may result in the temporary delay of entry of the decree or order and may affect that party's parenting schedule.
However, no party shall be permitted to delay the entry of the final decree or order by willfully refusing to comply with orders of attendance. The opposing party may seek an order of specific compliance and entry of the decree or order upon filing, noticing, and scheduling the appropriate motion; costs may be allocated to the non-compliant party in the Court's discretion. These matters shall be scheduled on the motion hour docket or may be docketed with a hearing previously scheduled.
C. Verification of Completion or Compliance and Waiver of Attendance.
The litigant ordered to participate in the program shall obtain and tender a certificate or verification of completion or compliance.
Parties in unique or unusual circumstances arising after the entry of the order may be eligible for a waiver of attendance, compliance, or completion. Either party may seek a waiver from the Court upon filing of a motion together with an affidavit setting forth the basis for the request. These motions may be submitted pursuant to LRFC 2.04.
