    • Will the other parent petition to enjoin my relocation or ask that I return the child?
    • Will I be able to prove that relocation is in my child’s best interest?
    • Why did I choose to relocate with my child?
    • Will the Court rule in my favor and approve my relocation?
    • Will the Court give the other parent custody of my child because I relocated?

 

  • For the parent who remains:

    • Should I petition the Court to ask that my child be returned?
    • What petition or motion should I file with the Court?
