The consequences depends upon many factors, including who is enforcing the Order of Protection to begin with.

While I do NOT advise you to contract your son if it is in violation of the Order terms, there may be a chance that such contact would go without notice. I still do not think it is worth it if you intend to petition for custody in the future.

Since I do not know the details of your Order, I can only tell you that violating its terms may subject you to fines and/or jail for contempt in the Family Court or Criminal court.
