Legal Question in Family Law in New York
moving to montana
I am in a weird situation. My ex wife and I would both like to move out of state. We would be staying close by to each other. This would not be a problem if my daughter who has a different birth mother than my ex wife wasn't involved. My ex wife has been more of her mother than her real mother especially recently. Her mother has not come to see her since this past christmas. She has not fufilled any of the courts requirements so that she may have visitation ( therapudic visitation). She aslo has not paid any of her child support. My ex wife has primary physical custody of my daughter. My daughters mother will never be able to have unsupervised visits with our daughter because of past issues with abuse. Would it be possible to get the court to grant us the ability to move?

Re: moving to montana
Anything is possible. It depends on the reason for the move and the age of the child. You should consult a family law attorney in your area for more information on how to make your request to move compelling.
Good Luck.

It is possible to have the judge grant you permission to move. However, there is no way any attorney can give you a definitive answer without a consultation. There are several factors a court considers when making a determination on "the best interests of the child".
