Relocating with a child: sixty days' notice, thirty days to object
The Child Relocation Act sequences the move: the parent with majority residential time gives SIXTY DAYS' notice (or within five days of learning, when timely knowledge was impossible); an objection is due within THIRTY DAYS of receipt, by petition for modification pursuant to relocation; and the intended relocation carries a rebuttable presumption that it will be PERMITTED — rebutted only by showing detriment outweighing benefit on eleven statutory factors.
The honesty note
Missing the objection window commonly lets the relocation proceed; the eleven-factor weighing is judgment, not arithmetic — timelines here are the law, outcomes are counsel's territory.

Legal information, not legal advice. Statements about county practice defer to your superior court's clerk-maintained local rules (GR 7(d)) and the courthouse facilitator — where this platform has no verified county data, it says so instead of guessing.
