Legal Question in Family Law in California

If I plan to move out of the country do I need a court order or can I move without one?

I currently have sole physical and sole legal custody, a 3 year restraining order on other parent, other parent has no visitations, has not started any of the classes ordered, has not shown up to court hearings, does not pay child support order, and has had zero contact with our child for two years now. My child is 8 years old. I am in the County of San Bernardino. The current order resulted from a DV trial, it says judgment but I do not know if it is permanent or not.

Your should go to court and get a court order allowing you to move. Otherwise you risk the possibility of being ordered to return the child to California pending a hearing.
