My ex was granted a specific issue order to relocate 4 hours away. The order confirmed mid way pick up/drop off for weekend visits however stupidly I did not think to confirm the same for the 5 week agreed school holidays we have. I presumedit would just be the same and we would meet halfway but she isn’t agreeing to this. She is refusing to allow me access for the agreed holidays we have in place unless I pick up and drop off at the end of the week however it is an 8 hour round trip and would not be possible. I’ve requested either half way or I would pick up then she could do the same at the end of the week but she refuses. Would I need to apply for a specific issue order and would I need to go through mediation again?
hi,
I don't think it's realistic to keep on returning to court every time there is disagreement like this. would suggest you to pick up and drop kids, even though it's a long journey. is it possible to move closer to kids?
How is it worded on your court order. I would have thought it continued as it is during term time. Term time I pick up and drop off to school, so don’t see the ex 😄 but during holidays I pick up from my ex house and she then picks up from mine. After all it was your ex who moved away.
It so important to get everything written on to the court order. The courts should know all of the issues that may arise and ensure they are covered, included, to prevent the need to return to courts. I know how stressful it is in court and you can forget, miss things.
