No, but it can have a lot of negative impacts in subsequent procedings.

That would depend upon whether there is a custody order in place. Generally, if a custody order is in place or there is an action for paternity pending there is a restriction on removing the child from the state. You should review your precise situation with a family law attorney to get an answer that would be meaningful to you. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
