Definintion of Child Custody terms
Ok for some reason I was not getting any response so just help me with this if you will. Can someone please exlplain what all of this means?
First let me fill you in on what our court order states:
The petitioner and respondent will share the joint legal custody with petitioner having sole physical care, custody and control of the minor child/children of the parties, subject to the right of visitation to respondent, which is defined as flolows; reasonable, specific dates and times as mutually agreed upon by both parites.
I would like to know what the meaning of Joint legal custody is and what it entails.
I would also like to know what the meaning of Sole physical, care custody and control pertains to.
I don't understand what exactly it means and have never had any kind of issues with custody untill now. Mind you this court order was put in place in 1998. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me understand what I am reading. I really do appreciate it.
