If my daughters father missed 5 days to video call her when the temp court order states for him to do it daily, what now?

Q- I’m curious to know .. if my daughters father has missed 5 days in a month so far of video chat calls to my daughter when I made it aware to him that he can call her anytime before her bedtime but he chooses to call her an hour / half hour before her bedtime instead and because of this he misses out on talk time with her which is stated in our temporary order for him to make daily video calls and the times to be worked out between us via text which I already done by saying to him he can call her anytime before bedtime which he chooses not to do so and texts me the following day with an excuse instead of notifying me ahead of time / notice / reason that same day that he can’t video call for whatever the reason. I’ve been keeping record of all this and will present this into court next month for our next court date. I just wanna understand / gain clarity regarding what the referees course of action will be due to his negligence towards video chatting his daughter?

 

A- It’s hard to say without (a) reviewing the order itself, (b) not knowing the history of the litigation, (c) not knowing Father’s side of things. Perhaps 1 suggestion is to have a set time (e.g., 7pm) for the call, instead of leaving it flexible. That said, you’re best advised to schedule a consultation with a Bronx Family Law Attorney for a full assessment.
