Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky

This is a difficult question to answer because so much is not known. For example, what did the separation agreement or decree say about moving, and how does your judge tend to decide such things. Kentucky courts are typically okay with moving when it is for economic improvement and they will adjust timeshare in those cases. However, without knowing your situation and your judge, no one could speculate as to whether that means the children would then primarily by with you or primarily with the father.

Generally speaking, the best interests of the child guides the court in determining whether a move and therefore a change in time for both parents is appropriate. Assuming there is nothing prohibiting any move in any court order, any move would have to be in the child's best interests. A number of factors, including bond with both parents, bond with siblings, reason for move, distance of move, age of child, etc. go into determining what is in the best interests. In the end you would want to consult with an attorney as these are very fact driven situations and sometimes knowing whose court the case would be heard would have some bearing.
