Q: Is there any way to get the morality clause removed from the divroce decree?
I am the girlfriend. My boyfriend has a 2 year old and is divorced. We want the morality clause removed. Any way to do so? Mom and I get along. She asks me to pick their daughter up from daycare and watch her on days that she works. But she told my boyfriend she doesn't think we should live together. We have been dating for 6 months and are very in love. If she trusts me to watch her would a judge have any problem changing it in the decree?
A: You can always file a motion to modify /change the language in your decree. One of the easiest ways to accomplish your request would be to get the opposing party to agree to the change. Then present the motion and the signed agreed order modifying... to the Judge for signature. It is always best to review your specific facts with a local attorney. TJP
