What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
Father has a parenting plan that was created when mother moved the kids from home state of FL to new state GA. Parenting plan created when Father protested mother's move. FL courts still hold jurisdiction.
Father moved to MA a year after kids moved out of state. Father gave mother 30 days notice of his move with no conflict from Mother. Father tried in mediation to have parenting plan modified to include rules about air travel transportation; mother wanted Thanksgiving every other year, but father didn't want to give it up so nothing was changed in mediation.
Because the Father had the kids for the summer at his new address Mother was required to fly kids from MA to GA at the end of the summer. (The parent who is receiving kids is responsible for transportation in the Parenting Plan.)
Mother initiated contact and purchased plane tickets to fly the kids from GA to MA for Thanksgiving, and Father agreed to fly the kids back to mother from MA to GA.
Father purchased tickets for kids to fly from GA to MA for Christmas (Again the parent who is receiving kids is responsible for transportation.)
Mother is saying because the Parenting Plan was not modified due to father's move that she does not have to follow it.
The last email Father received when he asked Mother for the kids sake to have them ready for Father to pick up in GA for him to fly them to MA was "As a result of your choice to move before amending the parenting plan to one we can execute and as I have repeatedly told you that it is not feasible for you to take the children with no arrangement to return them I will unfortunately not be able to release the children on the 18th."
I have a lawyer who has ignored my emails and calls asking for assistance with this issue.
Is it true that because the Parenting plan was never "amended" after Father moved that she is not obligated to follow the court order? Does this mean the current Parenting Plan is invalid?
Father has plans to go to pick up the kids as scheduled for noon on 12/18 and call the police if Mother refuses to release them. What are the chances Mother will be found in contempt of court?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
