Asking for a friend in Texas if the custodial parent is to reside in Dallas County as long the non-custodial parent lives in Dallas County, but the custodial parent has a job offer in a different state...


Can she move without contempt of court?

Should she send a letter to non-custodial parent stating the move is for a job?

Would she be 100% responsible for transportation costs after this point?

In the Texas Family Codes, Texas provides the right to step parents to consent to imminization, and medical treatment and the Garland Independent School district gives the right of a step parent to sign such forms. I think the state of texas recognizes a step parent as a parent as long as given permision by their spouse to sign forms, discipline the child and consent to medical treatment. I am sending a form to school that is notorized that says that I give my permission for my wife to consult, recieve information, and sign forms and I am also going to give one to the doctor office and sign a power of attorney. This is rediculous to complain about in our case because my wife does 20x what the actual "mother" does for my daughter.
My wife the step parent is going to continue to sign the forms all forms, except for the choice of school forms.

My wife, the step-parent to my daughter signed a behavior folder and watched my daughter do her homework, prepared for the next school day etc...
My x-wife, the custodial parent complained, stated that my wife is not a parent and has no right to sign papers.  
My wife does not sign for my x-wife...
This is not really a custody issue, only a right to sign a document as a parent. If a step parent has the right to consent for medical treatment, why can't the step parent sign a folder or behavior sheet or report card for school?

In Texas do step parents have the same rights as parents?
Specifically signing documents for school, etc behavior sheets, reading logs etc..

My toddler son dropped the voice recorder I had into my daughters backpack in exchange for some candy she had in there. (he liked to use it for a play phone) My ex-wife found this voice recorder with some conversations on it from phone calls between her an my daughter. Now she refuses to give it back. I sent a request for reimbursement to her lawyer or the voice recorder back, no response.

I guess there is nothing I can do because it is under 100 dollars?

In Texas by the way.

the only place that the new modified papers refer to the old decree in in reference to geographic location. The insurance section of the new papers are complete including definitions of insurance and the option to carry a secondary insurance

1. yes i had insurance but with a deductible of 2500 not 250

2. 50/50 of remaining charges

3.  No, but it is a complete order

In Texas original divorce decree states that insurance must be carried by the father (me) with a deductible no more than $250.00 for each occurance.

Went to court for modifications of child support and visitation and were final November 2004, we recieved a complete set of papers including the requirment to provide insurance, the modified changes and no paragraph included about refering back to old decree for anything except claiming the child on tax returns. Her lawyer never caught the left out part about the deductible.

January 2005 child has head injury goes to the hospital, the insurance at the time had a 2500 deductible. xwife had secondary insurance which paid a portion and the remainder we split 50/50.

Her insurance company that paid the claim, is sueing me for the amount they paid- saying that I was in contempt of court for not following the orignal divorce decree.
 
Does the new modified court order overrule the original divorce decree?

Do you think I am going to have to pay for this amount that the insurance company is sueing me for?
