Comments
the only thing missing is the Va. Code stating the County/City that chooses to incarcerated for "criminal" contempt and mandates work release, is also responsible for paying up to $25 per week to the Custodial Parent on behalf of the child during the other parents incarceration. Under FOIA, I've discovered localities have conveniently IGNORED this part of the laws.
