The issue in this case is whether the circuit court may in enforcing a child support order require this divorced father to make a search for other employment to increase or to add to his limited income. An additional issue is whether the defendant received proper notice and a hearing under the provisions of secs. 767.305 and 785.03(1) (a), Stats.,2 to allow a finding of civil contempt.
