My question involves child support in the State of: Texas
I have reviewed the motion for modification filed by my ex. Next issue. This is an interstate UIFSA case. Texas does not have jurisdiction regarding visitation or custody matters, only child support. Nowhere in the court order does it indicate him as joint managing conservator. In the motion for modification, however, his attorney has titled him as 'joint managing conservator'. I read Texas Family Code on this. He has not been appointed as such. Why is he being titled this way in this motion? I understand the term 'presumed' as it reads in the code, but again, Texas does not have the authority to make that presumption to begin with, so he cannot simply 'assume' the title. It affords him all the rights without proper legal construction of those rights. Can anyone make sense of this for me?
