NH law prevents relocation of a child away from the other parent unless the other parent agrees or the court authorizes the relocation. You will need to prove to the court that the father approved your the relocation of your daughter from NH to NY. You will need to timely respond to the contempt to make sure your rights are protected. Many thanks.
