Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: parental disagreement

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Without further knowledge, all I can say is that "it depends". I have no idea what stage the divorce is in, but I would ask your attorney to file a motion with the court asking for permission for the children to travel to Colorado. The court will then weigh the interests of each parent and make a determination.

You have to keep in mind that each of the parents have equal rights when it comes to the children unless a court rules otherwise. How would you feel if your husband wanted to take the children away for 5 weeks regardless of your desires?

Re: parental disagreement

It is simple enough to get back into Court and let the judge mull it over. I would not recommend that you unilaterally change things because that can come back to bite you. Hash it and get a consensus. Didn't say how long he thought was long enough?
