WHAT IF I WANT TO LIVE WITH MY DAD BUT MY MOM HAS CUSTODY??
I’m 12 turning 13 in September and I’ve decided to live with my dad. My mom said that i can go she is agreeing. Where would we have the court my dad lives in Houston, Texas and my mom lives in Las Vegas, Nevada. How much would the court be? Would it be a hard and long court?
Judge Tom's response: It’s good that your parents agree to your move to your Dad’s home - the court that placed custody with your Mom needs to approve the change before you leave the state for Dad’s house in Texas - since they agree, it shouldn’t take long to obtain court approval and it shouldn’t be expensive either since there’s no argument over the change of residence. Your parents can talk with their lawyers if they have one, or ask the court by letter for assistance. Many courts have self-help centers to assist in this situation. Good luck and all the best.
