Q: I’m supposed to have vacation custody but she wants me to have them only 12 days and I wish to have them aproxima.23
We are separated not divorced but she left from Pennsylvania to Puerto Rico 5 months ago
A: Vacation time is like every other provision of a custody order. It can be modified by the court if it is in the best interests of the child. In determining a vacation period, courts will look at factors such as the age of the children, whether they are in school, and the nature of the proposed vacation. You should contact a local attorney for assistance with this, to make sure your rights are protected.
