Legal Answers
48 Questions Answered
- Q. Do both parent have to file a Petition for Relocation or just the custodial parent who is going to move with the child?
- A: The answer depends on when the parent moved, as a status quo order is typically in place at the start of a divorce case in Florida. If the move occurred while the case was pending, the moving parent should have filed a request for relocation. I recommend consulting an attorney to review the specific facts of your situation.
- Q. Do Florida Courts still have jurisdiction to modify Parenting Plan if the mother moved to another state?
- A: Yes, the Court typically retains jurisdiction over the parenting plan, and that jurisdiction remains in place unless and until the Court relinquishes it to another state. Generally, all motions or requests for modifications should continue to be filed in the Florida case until jurisdiction is transferred to another state.
- Q. What does reunification generally look like in Florida?
- A: Reunification varies based on the specific circumstances of each case. If mental health concerns are raised in the pleadings, evaluations may be ordered. Initially, supervised timesharing is often implemented when there is a significant gap in time, and the child is unfamiliar with the other parent, with the goal of gradually transitioning to overnight timesharing. A 50/50 timesharing arrangement depends on various factors, such as geographic location and, most importantly, what serves the child's best interests. Consult with a local attorney to discuss the specific facts of your case.
