Q: Is it legal for my ex to register our children if I have already registered them for school where I live?
The children have been with me for over a year
A:
If you and your ex share joint legal custody, neither of you can unilaterally enroll the child in school without the consent of the other parent. If there has been a court order about where the child will go to school, you can a file motion to enforce. If you guys can't come to an agreement, you may have to litigate this issue unless there is already a parenting plan that stipulates where the child will go to school.
