Need advice on moving out of state....

I live in florida (primary custodial parent); and my husband (stepfather of child from previous marriage) recently found a better job in Georgia. My question pertains to the final dissolution of marriage and the terms of the visitation schedule. The judge handling the case stated that I was in no way to leave the state, however after a free consultation with a family law firm I discovered that this judge has the reputation for intimidating parents in this way, and that I in fact was not bound by the dissolution of marriage nor the visitation schedule to remain in the immediate area. The only requirement was that I provide the biological father with 90 days written notice prior to relocating. I have since tried researching the topic online and only found information stating that I need the court's approval before a move, is this true? I have read the court papers countless times and have seen no mention of what the judge stated.

Any Help Appreciated

You have to obey the judge if he said no--or get his permission now.

I agree with the above reply. Unless there is abuse occuring or something substantially weighted for the move, you most likely will be held in contempt of court and be dragged back to the state you're in. And even if there is abuse, it's possible that they will drag you back anyway and hold you in contempt. At the moment a move due to a job change isn't going to help you as far as I know. Comply with the court best you can and get a second opinion or more if possible on your case. That would be best I believe.

I was in a threatening situation and moved where I had family and had I not settled with a job and place of my own immediately I would have been dragged back. This would have been because I could have gone to get help from a shelter for abuse victims etc.. I gave no notice of leaving and because I established myself asap and was near family, I was granted the permission to stay in the other state as long as I abided by all the rest of the rules and judge statements. The court was acting on the childrens behalf of what was best now that the situation had changed because of my response (leaving to a place w/family support and establishing good living conditions).
I would like to move again and am having a hard time to justify it, even though he has moved out of the originating state to his home state. It all is complicated. Wish you luck.
