The signed and acknowledged agreement must do more than give "custody." It must specifically state that relocation is agreed upon, and to bolster its validity, the agreement should include a visitation plan for the stay-behind parent. There should also be a passport authority statement in... Read more »

You can file a petition for modification as long as you prove it's for the child's best interest to live with you. Act the soonest.

If you are not the biological parent, we’re not married to the other parents, and have not been awarded any visitation with the child through a court order, you do not any any rights to the child. I’m very sorry.
I do not agree with what is stated in this motion, I am not ready & I cannot afford legal counsel.

Yes. If you do not respond, the Court can set the matter for trial whether you are ready or not.
Do an internet search for "Arizona legal self-help." There are resources that may assist you in responding.

Depends on who is filing, where the parties reside and for how long. Jurisdictional analysis depends on several factors. Hire counsel to determine your options.
I have an agreed order with 2-2-3 schedule while living with spouse during divorce. I want to move out and ask the court for primary custody.

No. The mother's better course is to do nothing. If the father petitions, then the fights begin. The mother should not start a confrontation when one is not needed.
I filed a petition in Tarrant County to have my case moved to Collin County (where the kids and I reside) and to modify the order.

We have an agreement that states 3 non consecutive weeks. My ex-wife sees this as an opportunity to take 21 days as she sees fit. I have been instructed this is incorrect and am looking for further advice
answered on Jun 28, 2022
Non-consecutive means not in a row. Normally that would mean 3 separate weeks, however, it can br intertpreted to allow 2 consecutive weeks, but not 3. You should consult a local attorney to go over your specific matter.

In any event, you need to file an action for dissolution of marriage or a paternity action. I would strongly suggest that you hire a qualified family law attorney to... Read more »

My 3yr old child’s dad hasn’t seen, talked or supported her in almost 2 years. And his mom is the type to fight me in court to get visitation rights for her. Bc i don’t feel comfortable with her taking my child 5hrs away without me there, and she knows this but still keeps pushing about.
answered on Jun 26, 2022
Texas grandparent rights are very limited. I doubt she could prevail in court. Her son could get visitation and the grandparent could see the child on his time
My son's mother is trying to take me to court to invoke rules on where I can take my son and who I can take him around. She's using her mom's health as a reason for this due to her MS. Her mom is a caretaker of Logan when he's not in my custody/when she's at work. Thank you!

Your son's mom can get a court order but she can't keep you taking your son around family unless there is a danger
