The other parent may file in Rhode Island Family Court seeking a temporary restraining order, ordering that you immediately return the child to Rhode Island. This type of relocation of your children is at your own risk. You could pay a severe penalty! This type of relocation could cause you to lose physical custody of your child. If you are ordered back and you left without permission this could seriously impede your chances to relocate the child in the future.
No. However, you can move so long as you still can comply with the visitation order wherever you are relocating. For example, if the father has every other weekend visitation and the mother with physical possession wants to relocate to Canton Massachusetts, there is nothing preventing the mother from moving so long as the mother will still be providing father court ordered visits. If relocation will cause you to violate a Court order or Court ordered Visitation then you must file a motion to relocate out of state and change the visitation schedule. If you relocate and do not provide court ordered visitation you could be held in willful contempt and could potentially lose custody of your child or pay another penalty. If the other parent has "all reasonable rights of visitation" then you cannot relocate unless you can continue to provide reasonable visitation rights after the relocation. More Info...
