Mom wanting to move out of state

If there is no court order requiring you to remain in the state you can move, however if he objects he could go to court and ask that the court require you to stay here. If the two of you can work out a schedule that works for each of you (and I highly recommend this) then any schedule you are both comfortable with is reasonable.

Is there a law within North Carolina that could require me to live within a certain distance from my ex. The reason is I am starting to look for new employment and want to know if there are limitations to where I can move within state. I have heard some say I have to stay witin 50 miles, others say within 100 miles, and still some say as long as I stay within the state. I am hoping to be able to stay within nc but have other job offers outside that may require the move. What is the time frame I need to give my ex to object of me moving our son out of state?

There is no specific law that requires you to live within a certain distance from the other parent.

I am thinking about moving out of state. I have a four year old son with whom I plan to take with me. What are my rights? My ex and I get along and also work together where our child is concerned. He currently pays for child care only. If I relocate I plan on making an conserted effort to allow him to see his son a couple times a month and for long duration during the summer. Is this reasonable. I have also thought of neither of us paying child support but instead put money into an account to help pay for traveling expenses for our child. Also if I stay within nc is there a certain distance I have to stay without getting his permisson for the move. Also the reason for moving is I am losing my job and plan to relocate. Also fiancee is in military which could require a move at sometime. Please let me know my rights with moving out of state with my son. What steps should I take in the event I do move out of state that would make this easiest on all of us. Also the states where I am considering the move is within six hours. I want to know my rights beforing applying for jobs that will require me to move.
