I would contact your lawyer or someone with the court first to see if you can legally do that and what the consequences and repercussions might be

I assume that with the joint custody the father has visitation rights. During those 65 days that your daughter is going to be out of the state is he going to be missing out on his visitation? If so, then he can make an issue out of it if he wants.
But as far as just bringing her out of state, as long as it does not state anywhere in your court papers that you can't bring her across state lines without consent from the other parent there shouldn't be any problems.
Is there a reason why you don't want to ask or tell her father about your plans? It just seems that it would be the polite thing to do regardless of any court orders. Wouldn't you want to know that your daughter was going to be away for over 2 months if the situation was reversed?

Great question. It depends one a couple of factors. Did you go to court and have custody rights drawn? Has he gone to court to have your daughter legitimized? In some states that is a requirement in order for the father to actually claim custodial rights. I would check to see if that law is in effect for your state. If it isn't and you haven't actually gone to court to draw up an agreement, you are the primary parent and he legally has no say in when you leave and for how long. However, he doesn't have those same rights. If the your state has that legitimacy law (whether he signed the birth certificate or not) he can not take the child for any long periods without your permission to do so. Check you state laws concerning that. I know in the state of Georgia the father (unless you were married to him) has no legal rights to the child even if he signs the certificate until he goes to court to legitimize the child. Hope this helps.

If you have primary physical custody then it shouldn't be a problem, but to prevent any possible difficulties from occurring you should let your lawyer know and then as a courtesy inform the child's father of your intentions. A little peace of mind goes a long way, (and this depends upon the child's age) tell him that during those 65 days you will let your daughter contact him via telephone intermittently.

I'd run it by the judge if I were you. After all, the Father could scream Kiddnapping and then what?

You'd better talk to your lawyer just be safe...unless you and her father can work something out.
