Legal Question in Family Law in Tennessee
passport
MY ex wife wants to take me to court because I wont give her our son' passport to go to Colombia, the reason I wont give her the passport is because she wont give me a notarized letter so I know where my son will be and when he will be back, can she succesfully do this?

Re: passport
She can take you to court; whether she will succeed is a different story. I don't know the jurisdiction for this case. If it's TN, I don't know TN family law. But, sometimes a bond can be requested for the return of the child. No bond, no visit to Colombia.

According to Tennessee Code Annotated 36-6-101, "a parent has the right to receive from the other parent, in the event the other parent leaves the state with the minor child or children for more than two days, an itinerary including telephone numbers for use in the event of an emergency."
