Q: I am relocating to Tx with my 3 kids. If we are there for less than 60 days til court w their dad, will that look bad?
My attorney (that I no longer have because she’s moving) mailed my soon to be ex husband…a relocation request, that he got on March 12th. But he’s told my kids he won’t let them move to Tx. He just got out of jail for domestic aggravated abuse, & has been in & out of rehab for the past year. As well as hasn’t paid child support. He’s never taken care of all 3 by himself before without his moms help either. I have to be out of my apartment on May 2nd, & don’t have anywhere to go in Louisiana. If I go to Tx with the kids until our court date & am in Tx with them for less than 60 days, is that going to look bad on me when we do go to court concerning our relocation / custody?
I am the domicile parent currently & have been for 2 years…
We are in Lafayette Louisiana, case is going on in Jennings Louisiana
No court date set yet, but when there is it will be for my relocation request. He does have a criminal protective order, but it doesn’t include my kids, just my protection. Til 2023
A:
You have a court date coming up but you don't say whether it is because you filed a Motion to Relocate or whether he filed a Restraining Order to keep you in Louisiana
