Changing jurisdiction (sp)

[wendl]

Hi Soc,

Original case filed in WA state 1992.

2004 my son and I moved to MT (father did not object to the move)

Questions:

How do I file to change jurdisication of the case to MT???

Do I have to go back to WA state and request the release or transfer the case to MT??


Thanks,

You don't until you actually have an action against the other person that you need to have resolved by the court.

I can't tell you what to do until I know what the dispute is that you want the court to resolve.

Everything is fine right now BUT if something were to have to be changed, I really don't want to have to miss a few days of work and travel 600 miles.

Currently WA State has contempt hearing going on for non payment of cs.

Thanks,

PS Should I registered my case here in MT???

I just really don't want to deal with WA State since we don't live there anymore.

No need. The objective of registration is to enforce the order against the other parent. But, the other parent doesn't live in MT, so the only person who would ever want to register "is" the other parent, to be able to enforce the order against you.
