Experienced divorce attorneys in San Diego share some common “substantial changes in circumstances” may include: a loss or gain of employment, a sudden change in either party's finances, a relocation of the parties or children, a death, a change in the child's wishes, etc.
Some of these changes include: The parent with primary custody lost their job. One of the parents wants to move out of the city/state. There is evidence of abuse or neglect from one of the parents. One of the parents has been involved in criminal activity.
Some types of changes that might justify a change in custody include new circumstances related to: Abuse or neglect of the child — this could mean that the child's core needs like meals, safety, bathing and supervision are not being met. Substance abuse. Jail or criminal conviction.
A change in circumstances is when something important in a family's life changes, like when a parent loses their job or gets sick. This can be used in family court to ask for changes to custody or support orders. A modification order is a new court order that changes things like child support or visitation.
A common example involves a situation in which the custodial parent experiences a profound life change that renders appropriately caring for children difficult if not impossible. A parent who develops a serious health condition or an addiction to mind-altering substances presents such an example.
To address the immediate needs of the children involved, a motion for temporary custody is filed to establish a temporary arrangement until a final custody agreement is reached.
Juvenile Court awards temporary custody to Children Services or to relatives on an interim or short-term basis. If the court awards temporary custody to a relative, the custody lasts for one year, unless the court terminates it earlier. The court may also grant two, six-month extensions.
If you want to change a temporary custody order, you'll have to file a motion, write an affidavit (written statement), and collect other affidavits from professionals, neighbors, friends, and family members who support your motion.
