Cutody of the child has changed hands on two occassions and support amounts have been modified in the past 3 years. We kept our jurisdiction in Tennessee. The child reaches the age of majority and my child support order will be successfully fulfilled in June (the child's 18th birthday). Because my ex voluntarilly moved to Alabama (without the courts approval, if it was even needed) 4 years ago, she now wants to change the jurisdiction to Alabama because the age of majority is 19. Does she have the legal grounds to do this, and, if so, do I have to agree to a change of jurisdiction before it can be granted?
