In Florida, in a finalized Parenting Plan.. there is a section titled:

her time-sharing. The parent traveling with the child(ren) shall give the other parent at

locations and telephone numbers where the child(ren) and parent can be reached at

least ____ days before traveling.

time-sharing. At least ___ days prior to traveling, the parent shall provide a detailed

may be reached during the trip. Each parent agrees to provide whatever

documentation is necessary for the other parent to take the child(ren) out of the

country.

c. _____If a parent wishes to travel out of the country with the child(ren), he/she shall

provide the following security for the return of the child

If none of these are selected or filled out in a Final Judgment, what does this mean regarding travel?

The other party says this means that we cannot travel until we go back to court and get permission.

A lawyer told me that this means there are no restrictions regarding travel during my visitation time.
