Legal Question in Family Law in California
want to move with child
I live in California and want to move to Colorado for a job offer. I have a 14 yr old son that I share joint custody with his father. I am not sure what his father will think (he hates me b/c I was able to get his spousal support that I was paying him stopped b/c he was cohabitating). He will probably try and stop me for this reason. What kind of battle am I looking at?

Re: want to move with child
Only an attorney from your area can really give you an opinion, but you do need permission from the court before leaving.
Re: want to move with child
You best approach would be to either get an agreement from father that you can move or get a court order allowing the court order. Depending upon the circumstances you should have a good chance of getting the order allowing you to move.
