This mother had a very good lawyer. No one in this town will go up against her. The father could have had custody of the children and probably kept the house and everything else because she left the family, took money from their account to get her self and appartment, took the new car, was committing adultery with multiple partners , had minimal contact with the kids, and all because she claims she was not ready to get married. Even that was her second marriage and is now in line to be re-married. The father didnt think she would ever have a case against him because her actions. So he never filed for divorce or child support because he didnt want her money. He was just gald she was gone from his life. All he ever asked of her was to spend time with the kids because they were the ones suffering in all of this. Im not sure what was said to him in court, but the paper work states "Petitioner and Respondent, on final hearing, should be appointed joint managing conservators, with allthe rights and duties of a parent conservator. Petitioner should be designated as the conservator who has the exclusive right to designate the primary residence of the children. Respondent should be ordered to make payments for the support of the children and to provide mediacal child support in the maner specified by the Court. Petitioner requests that the payments for the support of the children survive the death of the Respondent and become the obligations of Respondent's estate" The way the last part is written does not make since to me. The father says that he was told it means after the mothers death, he is still to pay child support and that child support is to go into an account that he will not have access to. Even if the kids are in his care.
That 1% gave the other parent complete control over the kids. So yes it matters
I'm sorry, what was YOUR question again?
Perhaps Dad has a question? Mom?

I get that...but people who are very literal might very well be specific about what the orders say...and we often chastise those who are not literal about what the orders say.;)
:p
Yeah. I know. ;)
Re: Primary Mother Moving Kids Out of State
So, by dad's stipulation, mom is the sole managing conservator of the children. That puts her in a position of significant advantage when it comes to relocation. Dad really should be working with a custody lawyer.
Re: Primary Mother Moving Kids Out of State
Unfortunately dad doesn't have the financial means to get a lawyer. And when he tries to go any free or low income place for help, they tell him he makes too much money to get help. They only look at what his gross income is. They don't take into account the child support he pays for 3 kids. I just want to know what he needs to do to keep the mother from moving the kids across two state lines. His current situation wont allow him to take custody of the kids because he does have a place of his own with room for the kids. That is something that is being worked on and hopefully will be in place by the end of the year. He just doesnt want to loose contact with the kids. He fears for their emotional well being. This woman has never really been a true mother to those kids. She only wants them for photo opps and to save face for her new fience. She doesnt want to look like the mom who left her kids to go travel, party, and meet many many new people. Any free councel that he has gotten gives him no hope. They tell him he would be waisting his money because he will loose. Those kids dont want to move. They want to stay where they have friends and family. What do we need to do to put limits on her relocating?

Ok, you said that he is not in a position to take custody now because he does not have proper living arrangements for the children. He cannot stop mom from moving at all. He only has a shot at stopping her from taking the children with her. So, if he does not feel that he is in a position to take custody now, I am not sure that there is anything that he can do.
