Q: i have temporary full custody, does the other parent have a right to not let him go out of state?
not let our son to leave the state.
there is nothing on the R/O that says he can not leave state
A: Depends on what your orders say. If the court orders do not say you cannot take your child out of state, then there's no basis for him preventing you from doing so. In what way is he preventing you from traveling with your son if he doesn't have any custody?

A: More facts are required to provide a thorough analysis. If there is a paternity case or a divorce case, there are automatic temporary restraining orders in the summons preventing a parent from taking the children out of state unless the other parent agrees or there's a court order. You may just have the restraining order case. The orders from the court will be controlling. Since it sounds like the court awarded you sole custody, it sounds like you have good reason to leave. Definitely consult with a local lawyer to discuss the particulars.
