Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
Child Custody
My ex-wife and I have both have
custody of our 2 sons. (Its a 60-40
split, in my favor.) In the divorce
decree, it states that if my ex-wife or
I cannot be in possession of our
children for more than 3 hours while
they are in our custody, then we
must contact the other parent and
give them the right of first refusal.
She is leaving town during her
custody period and she wants to let
her new husband keep my sons for a
day and a half and then return them
to me. What custody rights does a
step dad have, especially when the
decree lays it out that the biological
father has custody and is designated
to have the right of first refusal?

Re: Child Custody
Talk to you previous attorney, with a setup like this you're bound to have had one. Trying to give any kind of answer without knowing all the details would be like dancing in a mine field.
