What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
I was awarded sole physical and legal custody in NY last month. My ex is in Texas with my daughter. I have retained a lawyer in Texas and am in the process of domesticating the order and having it enforced so I may go down and get my daughter. I continue to maintain residence in NY. Mother has been awarded supervised visitation in NY state. The custody order does not state specifics regarding visitation. Does that mean that whenever Mother wants to visit she can come whenever and spend whatever time, or do you think it can be up to me to state what days and for how long?
After the order is domesticated in Texas, will Mother be able to go to Texas courts to try to modify the visitation or custody order? I was under the impression that she would have to appeal to the court in NY that the order originated from as long as I remained in that jurisdiction.
Thank you for your help.
