Interstate Child Custody and Your Rights

An intestate child custody dispute may arise where there is a question over jurisdiction (where should the case be decided) or applicable state laws (which state laws govern the case). The Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) was enacted to settle disputes involving these jurisdictional issues. While the UCCJEA will determine where a case should be heard, it is important to know applicable state rights to protect you rights. Texas has adopted the UCCJEA so most custody determinations involving interstate questions will be answered by the code.
