Prepare a written notice to the other parent with proposed changes to parenting time and be ready to file a motion to change parenting time if agreement is not reached. You will typically need your current order, a proposed revised parenting plan, and supporting evidence about schools, family support, and logistics. The Judicial Branch provides a motion form and instructions that explain timelines and responses. Courts decide based on the child’s best interests and may require mediation if your order says so. Clear, specific proposals for schedules, transportation, and communication strengthen your filing. Begin with the official motion form and instructions. Contact us for a consultation to discuss your specific situation.
