child custosdy

[wolvert0n]

I'm about to divorce my wife she was cheating on me had a child by another man while we are married but we haven't been living together for a yr and half. now if she decides to move can she move out of state if we have joint cutosdy? if she tries what do i do?

Was paternity disestablished? (In other words - did the other guy establish paternity of the child born within wedlock?)

How many children are involved?

Where is she wanting to relocate? Who is the primary caregiver?

If you have an attorney assisting you with the divorce, ask the attorney to explain what is involved in custody.

Take a day or two to digest what you've learned.

Make an informed decision, and proceed.

You also need to speak with your attorney about disestablishing paternity for your wife's child with her paramour. You should fight that, unless you want to support another man's child!

Because you and her were married at the time of her illicit conception, you are the putative father. You need to get off the hook for the acts of that adulterous cow.

so she can make such a decision to move out of state as long as i have joint cutosdy?

 

[Proserpina]

I asked those questions for a reason.

In many instances, out-of-state moves will be approved based upon certain facts - such as, is it a bordertown move? Or is she wanting to go to the other side of the country?

Please answer the questions, then we can try to help you further.

ok we live in colorado. they are talking about moving to texas

 

[Proserpina]

...and the other questions....

 

[wolvert0n]

thats my main question i see my child everyday before school and almost every weekend. i just want to make sure she can't up and move on to wherever she wants(texas).

 

[Proserpina]

Perhaps. Maybe.

Unless you can answer the questions, nobody can really give you any other answer.

In many cases, the relocating parent is given permission to take the child - for example, if Mom has been the primary caregiver, this helps her.

And it depends on the age of the child, to some extent. And Mom's reasons for relocating.

Please speak with an attorney.

She has to prove that this is in the best interest of the child! Also moving to Texas will completely blow the parenting plan established. My girlfriend just went thru this. In theory she cannot just pickup and move without court permission.. you can hold her in contempt if she does. I would file a motion against her that you donot agree with the move and that this isn't in the child's best interest!

Given that the thread is over a year old, nnuclear, I would suspect the matter has been solved one way or the other.

 

[nnuclear77]

Lol..you know I didn't even pay attention to how old the thread was. I will start looking for now on. Thanks for the reply..

 

[Proserpina]

It happens to us all

Thank you for understanding
