Court directed custody? In general, no, you need the Court's permission to move, and - with a really good reason - you should be able to get permission.
Congrats on taking responsibility for your nephew and good wishes on your upcoming marriage! He must be a great guy - I'm a step parent and have enormous respect for people who care for a child who is not "blood."
I'm already married but I'm wanting to move and get divorced because of verbal abuse. The child was placed with through CPS and went through courts for ever and finally granted the full custody. Parents had supervised visits but if the cancelled 3 in a row then all visits are terminated.
I am so sorry - I actually can read and write, although you'd never guess it from my response! Again - sorry!
If it's Court directed, yes, you need the Court's approval. Whether the parents visit will count for something, but it won't be the deciding factor. If I were you one of my arguments would be that you are moving to remove the CHILD from the marital hostility.
Now that I actually read the question, how did I do?
Which the visits have been terminated because of the cancelling and no show no calls
What if I can't afford to go to court again. My sister has 4 children and custody of none.
Were you the only one granted custody or was it the both of you? Also did you have a case worker with CPS? You might be able to give them a call and so long as you leave a contacting address you may be allowed to move. Mostly its going to depend on the custody you have received and the laws of your State.
