Relocation has criminal teeth: consent or petition — never just move
A custodial parent relocating needs the other parent's WRITTEN consent or a court's permission — and the statute routes violations to the category D felony provision. The petition runs a two-step: a threshold showing (a sensible, good-faith reason · the child's best interests · an actual advantage), then the weighing factors. Joint custodians petition for PRIMARY custody to relocate at all.
The honest note
Fee-shifting rides with unlawful relocation — and the gate exists to keep people OUT of the criminal statute, which is why the workflow makes consent the first move.
