Geographic restrictions: More often than not, child custody orders in Harris (and surrounding counties) will have a geographic restriction limiting the custodial parent’s residence with the child to the county of the court, and surrounding counties. Moving the child outside of the geographic restriction can cause the custodial parent to be subject to fines, jail time, the payment of attorney’s fees and court costs, AND possibly losing custody of the child(ren). These are the counties that touch Harris County, Texas. If you’ve got a legal dilemma, click the link in my bio to schedule your consultation to discuss your case and how we can assist you.
