Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
Child Custody
On my wife's divorce order, my stepson is mandated to attend school in the district of his fathers home 200 miles away. Here in Michigan it is still legal to quit school at 16 years old, can he overule the court order and quit school there and start school here after he turns 16? There is nothing stating where he is to live and both parents have joint legal and physical custody. I personnally have never heard of such a crazy divorce order, Thank you

Re: Child Custody
Based on what you said, I assume the father has custody of the child? I think the best way to handle this would be to modify custody. I don't think having the kid just quit school in order to switch schools is going to cut it and could cause issues for your wife as far as the court order is concerned.
