It doesn't even matter where the mother and child live, it is determined by the state the suit was settled in. The father can request later that the suit be moved to a different state, but the custodial parent can fight that.

The state the case was filed in has jursdiction but the state you live in can put a order out baring him from having contact (a restraining order) if you can prove to you current state there is just cause for him not to see the child.

If there was a divorce, the same court that heard the divorce case maintains jurisdiction over the matter.
But normally, it is the state the child and custodial parent resides in.

The State in which the divorce was granted and custody established.

The state that had the origional venue. Unless you can (or have)change/ed the venue. If there is no origional venue then the one who files first and establishes the venue. If you are getting support then it most likely will be from that state. Even if neither one of you are living there. Thats when you can perhaps get the venue changed.

maximum states don't have a sequence decrease and whether they do the decide bases it greater on the youngster, the adulthood of the youngster and the motives why he does not elect to bypass. you may desire to bypass to courtroom and may be able to elect a legal professional. it is going to cost money, alot if he fights it. instead of combating visits, merely keep encouraging him to bypass. His grandma is substantial and so is his dad. you won't like having to tell him he has to bypass, yet you may desire to keep doing merely that. he's 10 now yet as boys become older they elect their dads there.
