Asked in Family Law for Minnesota

Q: I need to relocate from MN to MA where family is. Currently have shared custody, 2 young children. Father refuses.

Numerous attempts made to have productive resolution with Father. Mediation attempted and failed.

Father has attorney. Mother can not afford one. Mother is 26 weeks pregnant with twins. High risk pregnancy. Wanting to move back with family. Mother has no support system in MN.

Father lives alone. Marine veteran with combat related ptsd. Issues with alcohol. Past documented (with more than 2 health professionals) of emotional and psychological abuse towards Mother during marriage.

Father has 1 more night with children than mother because he did not want to pay child support.

Father has disregarded pediatrician more than once. Father has disregarded mothers concerns on several occasions.

Mother has made many offers where Father would have continued supported relationship with children if they are with her. Mother has even stated she would not request child support.

I have exhausted all individual avenues. I'm supposed to leave in 2 weeks.

Legally, what can I do?
