Q: Can I move out of the State of Ohio without the permission of my child's Father?
We have a court order-I am the Custodial parent and the Father has visitation only. I had to move out of State because I live with my parents and they moved. I did file paperwork with the courts because I have other concerns about my child going to his Father. When I filed I had not moved yet and we have a court date tomorrow at which point I will let them know I have relocated. What will the magistrate likely arrange for visitation with the Father being that we are now 10.5 hr drive away and our son is two years old?

A: It is likely that before you moved you needed to file a notice of intent to relocate. File that ASAP. You are supposed to do this prior to moving. If you do not, then the court can literally make you bring the child back to the state.
