Change of contact arrangements after relocation ex

Questioner

I am divorced. My ex and I have a contact arrangement for our 9 year old son which is based on us both living in the same village and being able to take our son to school and clubs. Our son has his main residence with me. My ex recently moved more than 50km away without consultation and without reporting this. He wants to continue the current arrangement and have my son travel an hour to get to his school. Is my ex allowed to do this or can I submit a request to change the contact arrangement or ask to move back for this reason?

Lawyer

You cannot force your ex to move back if your son has continued to have his primary residence with you. You can, however, submit a request to change the access arrangement. If you wish, I can initiate proceedings for you in which the petition will be dealt with at a hearing within six weeks. Speed ​​in these types of cases is advisable to prevent you from being overtaken by the fact that picking up and dropping off at and from school with an hour's travel time has now become standard practice. If you wish, you can contact me.
