What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL
Never married, never lived together ( never even lived in the same town), paternity established, no visitation set up (yet), child support has been set up for a year or so.
Ex is taking me back to court, but court is set to take place in the county it was in for our first hearing (4 years ago). I filed a motion for a change of venue (no lawyer) and am still waiting to hear if it will be granted or denied.
I'm just wondering how judges usually decide on these things? My ex doesn't now, nor has she ever, lived in the county where we had our last hearing. My child and I used to live there but we moved to this county (less than 50 miles away, which was approved by my ex) almost 4 years ago. I'm just wondering what I should expect and how long it usually takes a judge to make this decision?
Thank you,
Chad
