The child is at least 12 years old and has expressed a desire for the change.
If you file a motion to change a temporary custody order, the judge may schedule a hearing to gather facts and information from all the witnesses. The court may, alternatively, choose to make a decision based on the affidavits and other paperwork you and the other parent submit.
