Child Custody is the most important issue
of a divorce when there are children involved in the marriage that is
being dissolved. The issue of child custody centers around how the
possession, control and support of the child will be conducted after the
divorce is over. Residency, visitation and child support are
commonly disputed. Typically, the
default custody arrangement is Joint Managing Conservatorship with
regard to both parents. This basically grants both parents with
the right to be part of the decisions involving the child, have access
to school information, etc. However, once Joint Managing Conservatorship
has been decided or agreed upon, it must be decided as to which parent
will have the exclusive right to designate the child's residence and
whether there will be restrictions placed on where that residence can
be. This is generally the source of most custody disputes. |
