Most states have mandatory language that has to be included regarding relocating more than (50-60 miles). She would generally have to give notice to you and to the court. It would then allow you to modify your parenting time/custody rights to accomodate the move. If she is moving far away in some states you might also be able to prevent it depending on her reason for moving.
Good luck.

In Mi its 250 miles is the furthest you can go. Have to have courts permission to move out of state unless you agree, then they'll give you longer visitations in summer and Holidays. Are you close to your children or do you just want to make her suffer?? Get a lawyer and stop asking co-workers.

It depends on the level of custody you are awarded. It isn't in the divorce papers, it would be listed in your custody papers! And yes, you can do that as long as you awarded any custody at all, then you should be included in the decision making. It may not be possible to list that she CAN'T do it at all, but you can have it listed where she must discuss it with you before making decisions and then the two of you would have to choose what is best for the child.
Hope this helped.

Your lawyer can fight to have it in the divorce agreement that your wife has to stay within a certain number of miles of your location. If your wife doesn't agree to it, it's up to the judge and usually a judge won't agree to it if your wife can get a better job elsewhere to better support your children.

She can't control where she lives. Generally 50 miles are so are still local. You can have it written up that she has to give you 30 days notice. If you can't agree the judge usually designates 3rd party evaluators to determine if the move would be harmful to the children.

Fathers for equal Rights
It is a good site and women can join as well.....You can have it read that she does not move outside of the connecting county.
My advice is know your facts, try to get along with her through the entire thing as much as you can; because she will still be a part of your life for a long time.
The better you get along with her, then the better it will be for your child, and all the better for your sanity...

you can ask for it but only a judge can make that ruling if your ex-wife doesn't agree. I know a couple who had it written that their children had to stay in the certain school district. laws might vary from state to state so ask your attourney. That's what you are paying them for.

Dude...I hate it that you guys despise one another THAT BAD. You're gonna have to learn to be civil to one another, otherwise, your kids are gonna start fighting you. They love you both and can't understand the situation. You shouldn't expect them to understand it in the first place...And neither should your ex-wife.
