Pennsylvania law bars relocation unless either or both parents consent or the court reviews and approves the relocation. Pennsylvania requires the parent wishing to relocate to the other parent by certified mail at least 60 days before the move.
A simple move down the street does not count as a full "relocation." Because every custody situation is different, there is no set distance that determines a "relocation," however, in general, a parent cannot relocate with the child to somewhere very far away, or to a different state while sharing custody.
If you're a parent wondering, “Can I move out of state with my child?”, the short answer is yes—but only if you follow Pennsylvania law. Moving with your child without the other parent's consent or court approval can have serious legal consequences, including loss of custody.
Once a judge orders an emergency custody order, the child will temporarily go into designated custody. This will happen quickly - whether it be the day of the order of a few days afterwards. The child will remain in designated custody until the date of a full trial. At a full trial, the case will be reviewed again.
Even if a parent has a legitimate reason for moving, the court may deny relocation if it significantly disrupts the child's relationship with the other parent. Some common reasons relocations are denied include: The move would severely limit the non-relocating parent's ability to see the child.
Temporary orders They remain in effect until a judge modifies them or issues a final order. If parents can't agree on a temporary order during conciliation, the conference officer recommends one to the court, and the parties must follow it until the court rules otherwise.
If you file a motion to change a temporary custody order, the judge may schedule a hearing to gather facts and information from all the witnesses. The court may, alternatively, choose to make a decision based on the affidavits and other paperwork you and the other parent submit.
Initially, it may start out with an inquiry or investigation into the matter. Then, after the judge has deliberated, a temp order is issued until the concern is fully grasped and understood. After this and other evidence has come to light, the couple may be issued a final or permanent order on the issue.
