JIMMY LAMAR BOWERS JR

Custodial interference is when a relative (parent, step-parent, grandparent, sibling, aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew) of a child under 18 unlawfully takes the child from the state, keeps the child after visitation ends, hides the child knowing it was unlawfully taken, helps someone else do these things, or violates court-ordered visitation or custody rights. Base punishment is up to 30 days in jail and up to $50 in fines, but it can be enhanced to a felony (1-6 years in prison) if done repeatedly or with intent to deny the other parent access.

Penalty: Class C misdemeanor; 30 days; fine up to $50
