Q: Is it possible for a judge to end a custody order if both parents want that? To where there is no court order in place?
We went to court Oct 2018. We reconciled in March 2019, and we’ve been together ever since. We now live together. Child support was ended 2 years ago. We just want there to be no custody order in place, as it was a stressful and hard time for the both of us. And we’re willing to ask the judge to dismiss or (I don’t know the correct term) end the custody order to where there is no custody order in place. Like a clean slate.
A: Yes. You can file a Joint Petition to Terminate Parenting Plan and explain what you've explained here. That the two of you have reconciled and are living together, so there is no longer a need for a Parenting Plan.
