Current orders in Snohomish County WA, (for the last 13yrs)

I moved to MT last Oct, (ex and I agreed to the move and drew up new parenting plan which he has not filed with the court) But the intent to relocate was filed and no objections filed against it.

Ex no longer lives in Snohomish County WA either.

Can I file in Montana to have my case transferred here or do I need to file with WA to have it transfered??

What is the issue that you intend to litigate (or is there an issue)? If you are only interested in having an enforceable order in MT, then just register the existing WA order with your county court, and then you can enforce it in MT.
