Can a peaceful contact order get dismissed if the protected party is abusing it?

Business 2 views 3 answers
I am in a bind as I share joint custody with my ex and have a peaceful contact order in place. In the past month, they have had the sheriff out multiple times after accusing me of violating it. Each time, I have presented the officers verifiable information showing that I have followed our court orders to the letter for which I get an incident # and nothing more becomes of it. I am concerned that while I have maintained the peace, nothing prevents them from making a call. I even lost a job for deputies showing up at my work, and them apologizing for just having to check, but the company let me go because of the perception of an issue. Can I get this order lifted because this person is harassing me through it?

You may be able to ask the court for orders of clarification. You may also need to ask for supervised exchanges which, while they cost money, may grant you some peace of mind. In the alternative, you may want to have witnesses with you when you do exchanges. But since they're your friends or family, they're arguably biased, which is why there are supervised visitation/exchange agencies.
