If two parents agreeably move to another state, do the current orders still stand?

Hi Sheri: First, let me preface this  by stating I am not admitted to practice law in Pennsylvania, and the laws of your state may differ.   I am assuming that you are divorced from  your children's father (or, if you were never married that there is a judgment establishing paternity and custody,visitation,timesharing) and that there is a final judgment or other order of the court prohibiting the parties from moving.   If that is the case, then yes, you must seek a court order to change that which is now the ruling in your case.  The good new is that typically when both parties agree, the Court will permit a stipulation or similar written agreement to be submitted to the Court, and the Court will typically enter a judgment or order consistent with the agreement of the parties.   Perhaps your state has some on-line forms to assist you, or you may be able to speak with a clerk at the courthouse or the judge's assistant with some help in setting a hearing to accomplish your intentions.  Often, in a case where all parties agree, an attorney may also be able to help you far more economically than when a matter is contested.  However, if you leave without an order it can come back to bite you in the future.   Good luck with your plans, and please confirm this with a Pennsylvania attorney.   Cindy S.
