§ 36-6-505. Requesting hearing for noncompliance.
If a parent timely requests a hearing to contest the issue of compliance, the court shall stay the action and may not certify the name of such parent to any licensing authority for noncompliance with an order of visitation until the court issues a written decision after a hearing that finds such parent is not in compliance with an order of visitation; provided, that after a decision by the court has been made in the form of a final order as provided in § 4-5-315, there will be no further stay unless a reviewing court issues a stay, which stay shall be automatic upon the filing of a notice of appeal. The court shall issue its decision after hearing without undue delay. The order must inform both parents that either party may file an appeal of the decision within thirty (30) days of the date of the decision. A certification concerning the status of a license shall be automatically stayed pending disposition of an appeal. Upon a finding of noncompliance, the court may also allocate additional time with the child to the nonoffending parent. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the court shall assess costs of an unsuccessful appeal of notice of noncompliance to the parent in non-compliance. Acts 2000, ch. 971, § 6.
