Description

The Modify Decree for Passport form is designed to help parties in a divorce case seek a modification to an existing custody arrangement, specifically regarding the custody of a minor child. This joint motion allows both Petitioner and Respondent to request the court to alter the previous decree by changing sole custody to joint legal custody, based on changed circumstances that would benefit the child. The form requires participants to provide their names, ages, addresses, and relevant details about the child, including their living arrangements and shared responsibilities. Key features include stipulations for joint communication about the child's well-being, specific arrangements for timesharing and visitation, and financial responsibilities. Filling out this form requires clarity in articulated agreements between parties, which can facilitate negotiations and cooperation. Specific use cases include modifications due to relocation, changing family dynamics, or improved co-parenting relationships. This form is particularly useful for legal professionals such as attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants who are assisting clients in navigating custody arrangements and ensuring compliance with legal standards.
