Oregon City, OR asked in Family Law and Child Custody for Oregon

Q: What are my options? What can I do?

I filed a motion to adjust parenting time due to how the school year played out last year with me doing most the work. I kept track of all the parenting time and situation. I had them approximately 70% of the time and was doing most of the dropping off and picking up from school despite her only living 1.5 miles and me being 36 miles away from the school. I was granted temporary custody for an immediate danger motion and my ex told the judge that my son was registered for school where she was and I was told to take him there. When I showed up to drop him off I found out that he wasn’t even registered and my ex was doing it that morning and that he’s not even in the school district she was putting him in. So I got a note from the School director of education and was wondering what my options are to get this resolved and show the judge what I had found out? I’m just want a more stable situation for my children so they don’t suffer during school year

A: Are you sure it was an immediate danger order that was granted? Those are usually reserved for danger of physical abuse. If you have filed for a modification, you should get a hearing at which you can present your evidence as to why you should get the parenting time plan that you are asking for. I would need a little more information such as who currently has custody and what the parenting time plan currently is.
