Relocating with Minor Child Less Than 50 Miles Within a State
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: FLORIDA
I understand I am allowed to move with my child LESS than 50 miles away from current residence without seeking court or father's approval. So I did, now my child's father is claiming I did not give him notice of the new address, which I did by email and post mail.
Do I need to give a formal notice to the court of an address change so it's on-record? If so what form should I use?
Thanks!

Well what is the exact wording of your court order regarding BOTH relocation AND providing him with an up-to-date address?
Re: Relocating with Minor Child Less Than 50 Miles in Florida
No, the exact working is that relocation must be conducted by mutual agreement following FL Statute 61.13001.
This statute defines "relocation" as a move of OVER 50 miles.

It looks like you've covered your bases by notifying him of the new address and moving less than 50 miles. Just make sure you document that you notified him. If you have a lawyer, provide your lawyer with a copy of the notifications you sent him. If you don't have a lawyer, bring your documentation to court with you if he does, in fact, take you to court.
