Parenting Time and Decision Making Modification

-Can I modify my parenting time or parenting schedule once the final divorce decree is entered?

Generally, the Court will look at whether the proposed change is in the “best interests of the child”. However, if you are requesting a substantial change that changes who has the children the majority of the time, the Court will not make the change unless the following circumstances can be shown:

  • New facts have arisen since the original decree, and

  • The parties agree to the modification in parenting time, or

  • The child has been integrated in the moving party’s family with the consent of the other party, or

  • The child is endangered by the current residence, and the advantage of changing the residence outweighs any harm such a change would cause.
