Im married with my wife who has a child with her ex boyfriend that has a current TRO that expires in september. Are we allowed to move to another state with the child?
Hello ****, it's crucial to know your current location as laws regarding moving with a child under a temporary restraining order (TRO) can vary by jurisdiction. Can you please provide that information?

Based on Hawaii family law:
- If you have legal custody, you may move unless it violates any court order.
- If the TRO doesn't specifically prevent moving, it should be allowed.
- Always consult with a local attorney to ensure compliance with the law.
Can I be reported for kidnapping after the TRO expires?
Hello ****, after the TRO expires, if you move with the child without the other parent's consent and it violates a custody agreement, it could potentially be viewed as parental kidnapping. Always consult with a local attorney.
what if no custody agreement is stated anywhere in the TRO after it expires and it only applies to right now
If there's no custody agreement in the TRO or elsewhere, it's advisable to get one. Without it, moving with the child could potentially be seen as kidnapping. Please consult with a local attorney to discuss your specific situation.
