What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kansas
This question is being asked for my brother. His divorce was finalized in January if this year.
He has two kids (5 months and 3.5 years) with his ex wife. She has physical custody and they have joint legal custody. He was ordered to pay child support and has visitation on the weekends from 10-6p. For the most part, they have been abiding by this set up.
Last week, his ex wife mentioned she and the kids were moving in with a man that we have only known them to be in a relationship for 2 weeks. Around 3 days ago, she calls my brother and says that his job was transferring him to Texas and she and the kids were going to go with him. She said they would come every weekend to see my brother. My brother did not like this idea and said that they would go to court and see what a judge says about all of this. She agrees to wait until then.
Well, fast forward to today. She drops off the kids early. Shortly after, my brother calls her asking if the kids have been fed yet. Her new boyfriend answers the phone and answers the question. My brother asks if the kids could be picked up half an hour earlier because something work related came up. Her boyfriend tells him that it wouldn't be possible because they are heading to Texas to move the rest of their stuff and they would be back until April 8!
My brother was told by her that she would wait for a judge to consent and now he finds out that they have been actively moving their things to Texas. Not only that, he wasn't told he would have the kids for a while two weeks while she is in Texas with her boyfriend! He doesn't have a problem with keeping the kids here for that time, but the issue is that his ex wife is actively moving meaning it is a fact that his kids will be living there. And now she claims that she lied and will not be bringing the kids around every weekend, maybe once a month if she feels like it.
What can he do about all of this??
