Q: In the middle of custody trial, ex asked for primary custody.
I have maintained primary for 10 years (our son's entire life). We live in different states and I was given primary interim custody. I have no personal issues or concerns and have always been a great parent. Our son is doing great. What is the likelihood the judge would entertain his request for primary? There has been so significant change of circumstances. I am shocked my ex's attorney would let him do this. Sound like he advised against it, but in the end going with what his client wants.

A: If there is already a court order, unless you have relocated since the last order, he would have to show endangerment to change primary parenting time.
