Re: dcse

If the child has been continuously resident in Arizonza for less than six months, Virginia would still have jurisdiction over the issues of custody and support and if the father opposes the mother's move to Arizona and the transfer of jurisdiction for custody and support to that state, he could still oppose it by filing his opposition in the appropriate Virginia court.
