Q: My husband lives in a different state. Would I be able to legally move my children to a different state without his perm
My husband lives in Missouri, kids and I live in Colorado, I want to move with my family in Texas.
A: The issue in this case is whether your move to Texas is geographically significant as relates to parenting time. Also relevant is whether there is actually even a court case filed. If there is no court case filed regarding your children you are free to go. If there are already orders in place, you will need to file a request with the court. That being said, as your husband does not even live in Colorado, a court would very likely grant your request.
