The non-custodial parent's ability to restrict the other parent's relocation is limited.

Most Texas custody orders include a geographic restriction.

As long as a parent stays within that restriction, the other parent has no say in where they live.

In Texas, there's no such thing as community debt.

Who repays a debt after divorce usually comes down to which spouse signed the contract.

If both spouses signed, there's more leverage to address that joint debt in the division of the community estate.

Texas has not moved to a 50/50 presumption, so a court following the code will name one parent primary and give the other a possession schedule.

The standard possession order includes first, third, and fifth weekends, Thursday nights, rotating holidays, and 30 days in the summer.

Over a year, that works out to roughly a 47/53 split, with much of that time coming during holidays and summer.

Texas defines custody on two separate but connected tracks: rights and duties, and physical possession.

The parent who designates the primary residence usually has the kids most weekdays, so elective medical, dental, and counseling decisions tend to follow that parent.

A parent who has the children on first, third, and fifth weekends usually isn't scheduling those appointments on Saturdays and Sundays.

Relocating doesn't always mean you need to change your possession schedule.

What you may need to address instead is the geographic restriction in your order, if there is one.

Lifting that restriction may be the step that makes your move possible.

A protective order can come into play in a Texas family law case when there is violence toward a spouse or toward the children.

The process starts with an application for a protective order that lays out the facts.

Those facts help convince the court to restrict or prohibit the abuser's access to the victims.

Conservatorship in Texas covers the rights and duties parents have toward their children.

Some apply to both parents at all times, like the duty to support your children and provide food, clothing, and medical care, and the right to attend their school activities.

What parents usually disagree on are elective rights, such as invasive medical, psychological, and educational decisions, which typically follow the parent the children live with.

Many parents assume joint custody means a 50/50 split, but that's not how the Texas Family Code works.

Under the code, one parent has a slight majority of time while both parents share regular and frequent access.

The code also frames that time as the children's access to their parents, not a parent's ownership of time with the kids.

Planning to move out of state with your child?

As far as possession goes, you may not need an immediate modification, because the Texas Family Code already includes a standard possession order for parents who live 100 miles or more apart.
