I know that in a custody battle the mother may not be able to move to another state from the father unless he has no problems with it and they come to an agreement or unless the mother has agood reason in wich the judge may allow her to move but is it legal to make a mother live in the same COUNTY as the father of the child specially if he use to beat on the mother.I don't see why the mother would have to live in the same county as long as she is in the same state!If anyone as any answers or know where I can get this info from please let me know.THANK YOU!!

In my divorce, I knew that a job transfer for my ex was a probability. So we had put in there specific visitation rights in the event that he transferred. In my case (my daughter's), she went to PA to visit him for 6-8 weeks of the summer, ALL of spring break and every other Thanksgiving and the year he had her Thanksgiving, he also had her the week of Christmas. If I had her that year for Thanksgiving, I had her the week of Christmas. The other parent got the other week of Christmas break. The lawyer(s) will set up a schedule for transportation for the child. Initially we met in Roanoke, VA. But over time, that was too much driving. So he started buying her a plane ticket to fly from Atlanta to Philly, each way, every time it was his visit. It worked for us and it worked for our daughter. Good Luck. By the way, you CAN move out of state or out of the country, just make sure it is put in the papers in advance if there is a possibility.

Yes, it is legal. Speaking from experience the ex-spouse was not allowed to leave the county and so she moved a couple of cities away instead. The father felt the distance would cause him to see his children less and the court awarded in his favor.
Im sure in an abusive relationship maybe the court would decided differently. They now appoint the children a lawyer also and that lawyers opinion counts too.

Yep, that is true. My niece had to go through that, plus after the custody issue was settled she had to get her ex's permission to move outside the country. Really messy. She ended up moving without his permission and then they had to go back into court. Bad scene, but yes, it's legal.
If you want info about it contact Child Services in the county where they live.

It's actually based on the court/state and county I believe.

It all depends on the state you are in. Michigan has a law no more than 100 miles so I was allowed to move back to my hometown no problems.......Check your local laws but if he continues to abuse you or the children you need to get a restraining order ASAP.... Good Luck!

pass to the interior of reach DA in NJ and request for expert-bono illustration from them. As a tax-payer (i assume federally on your case), you're entitled to this. Any American is entitled to legal illustration, despite the case or subject in step with danger.
