Legal Question in Family Law in California
Moving out of state
We have joint custody and I have Physical custody. I am recieving below standard child support. My ex has minimal court ordered visitation. He was ordered to attend parenting classes etc. I am providing 95% of his care including insurance. I want to move to Tennessee to have a better life for my entire family. My court order states I have to inform the other party and the court thirty days prior leaving to ensure adequate time for the other party to challenge the move. What exactly needs to be filed and can he actually prevent me from moving to a better place, job, and life for my other children and their medical conditions? He is willing to move to another city but refuses to move to another state with us after I discussed it with him. I have been more lenient to him than the courts and he wants to challeneg this. What do I need to do and where can I find more information on this?

You need to comply with the Court order by giving him the required notice. Notice should be sent in writing, return receipt requested. If he does not go to court seeking a restraining order, you can move. Otherwise, you will need the consent of the Court.
Good luck to you!
