Legal Question in Family Law in California

Re: Moving out of state

The court cannot stop you from moving, but can stop removing the child from the state. You should attempt work out an alternative visitation schedule with the father. Also consider high speed internet with a web camera at each end that would allow father and child to have regular face to face contact. You could also offer him visitation during vacation time. Transportation will also be a major issue. Consider how much you can contribute to reduce his costs for transportation. If you cannot enter into an agreement then file a petition with the court.
