Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

I am not sure what you are asking, but it appears you are asking if you will be allowed to relocate to Florida to complete your degree? If yes, the issue of relocation first looks at whether you are the parent of primary residence. Based on the above information it appears you are the parent of primary residence, so to determine whether a relocation will be detrimental to a child, a court must consider the following factors:

�The reasons given for the move

�The reasons given for the opposition

�The past history of dealings between the parties insofar as it bears on the reasons advanced by both parties for supporting and opposing the move

�Whether the child will receive educational, health and leisure opportunities at least equal to what is available here

�Any special needs or talents of the child that require accommodation and whether such accommodation or its equivalent is available in the new location

�Whether a visitation and communications schedule can be developed that will allow the non-custodial parent to maintain a full and continuous relationship with the child

�The likelihood that the custodial parent will continue to foster the child's relationship with the non-custodial parent if the move is allowed

�The effect of the move on extended family relationships, here and in the new location

�If the child is of age, his or her preference

�Whether the child is entering his or her senior year in high school at which point he or she should generally not be moved until graduation without his or her consent

�Whether the non-custodial parent has the ability to relocate

�Any other factor bearing on the child's best interest.
