Ex baby mamma and me have 50 50custody over my daughter in October 20th 2016. We got in a big argument where she attacked me and almost threw me off a second story balcony...she was arrested that night on domestic violence and vandalism charges..I filed for restraining order and full custody.I got approved of the restraining order but not full custody tell court hearing...I'm living in a different city then I was before..I was living in Ontario with my ex baby mamma but after the altercation I moved back to chino...my daughter goes to school in Ontario..but I need her to go to school here in chino close to me so I can get her and take her to the baby sitters and take her to school...with the mom incarcerated do I have permission to change schools for my daughter so she's close to me and it makes it easier on me? Cause I would be taken her to school all while I'm still working
A: Since there is a 50/50 custody orders in place and due to change of circumstances, the court will look at the best interest of your daughter and not necessarily yours. The court's will look at your daughter's age and her ties to the school, etc. Before making any changes, consider the elements that the court will consider. I suggest that you seek an advice of an attorney and discuss your case in detail for specific answers. Best wishes!
