What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon
I was told that in the state of oregon the mother of the child resulting from an unmarried relationshipis assumed to have SOLE physical custody of the child.
Is this true?
The reason I ask is my ex girlfriend who lives in Oregon has a child with another man, whoms she is no longer together with. Recently we started talking again and she said she wanted to come down to houston texas where I am currently living.
I bought her and her son plane tickets for a two week trip down here and now with only a couple days before her plane is scheduled to depart her ex is saying she cannot go, and cannot take her son with her to texas. He has threatned to file kidnaping charges if she does.
I spoke briefly with a laywer here in houston and she said that there is nothing to worry about and that he cannot file charges against her becaause she has assumed full custody as the primary caretaker in oregon and her boyrriend has no legal rights to the child until he petitions the court for a custody agreement.
I an wanting some other opinions as to what you think the legal ramafacations of this vacation she might have.
Thanks in advance.
