Re: custody and abandonment
In addition to Mr. Greene's advice, since you will be in court for the change of custody, add a request to move out of state. Mail the notice to his last known address. If he is not represented by an attorney then use the last address for him in the court file.
Re: custody and abandonment
No you can't just move. But this is easy, you file an OSC for modification of custody which based upon your presentation of the facts has to be granted and then you move. Slap a child support order on it too.
