Ashland, KY asked in Family Law and Child Custody for Kentucky

Q: I have two children out of wedlock with same woman. My name is on both birth certificates.

She started a relationship with a man in England online and we live in Kentucky. Her mother lives there and next year she wants to take kids for a visit. With her new relationship overe ther I fear she may decide just to stay in England. Do I have legal rights as is to prevent that or must I take other preventative steps?

A: F a legal proceeding concerning these children exists, you’ll need to get orders entered addressing these concerns in that case. If no proceeding exists, you’ll need to file one and get orders entered in the new case.
