Relocation clause found
Can my ex move our child without telling me?
Short Answer
No — not under this agreement.
Full Answer
You have a clear relocation protection clause, so you do not have to dig through 24 pages to figure out what happens next. Your agreement says a parent cannot move more than 50 miles without consent or a court order, and it requires 60 days written notice first.
50-mile relocation limit
60 days written notice
Section 8.3 — Relocation Provisions
“Neither parent may relocate more than 50 miles from the current residence without consent or court order. The relocating parent must provide 60 days written notice.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before uploading your agreement.

No. Your document is processed entirely in memory during your session. We never save, cache, or store your file on our servers. Once you close or refresh the page, the document data is gone. We also do not create user accounts or track your questions.
No. ReadMyCustody is an AI-powered document analysis tool — not a law firm. We help you find and understand clauses in your own agreement, but we cannot interpret how a court might rule or advise you on legal strategy. For legal decisions, always consult a licensed family law attorney in your state.
Our AI reads your actual document and cites the specific section and clause number for every answer. You can always verify the cited clause against your own agreement. That said, AI can occasionally misinterpret ambiguous legal language — for important decisions, double-check the cited section yourself or consult an attorney.
We accept PDF files up to 3MB (most agreements are well under this). This includes custody agreements, divorce decrees, parenting plans, stipulated orders, settlement agreements, and any other family court document. The document needs to be a searchable PDF — scanned images without OCR may not work well.
You can purchase a Day Pass ($2.99) for 24 hours of unlimited questions, or a Week Pass ($4.99) for 7 days. These are one-time payments — not subscriptions. Payment is processed securely through Stripe. Most parents find that custody questions come in clusters, so the Day Pass is our most popular option.
No. We don't create accounts, send emails, or share any information with anyone. There is no way for anyone — including your co-parent — to know you've used ReadMyCustody. Your session is completely private.
Yes. Our AI reads and responds in over 30 languages — including French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Arabic, and more. Upload a document in any language, ask questions in any language, and get answers in your preferred language. The website interface is available in 6 languages.
