Hi -
We share joint physical/legal custody and nothing about vacation time is stated in our divorce paperwork. Nothing about vacationing out of state is addressed either, only "moving" out of state is mentioned.
What is the proper way to inform my ex that I plan to take daughter out of state for approximately 1 week during spring break (in April)? He is very controlling and may find a "reason" to try to disallow it or make it impossible by saying I can't have her during "his" normal timesharing days or nit-pick the details, such as I can only have her for exactly 1 week but no longer. I fear him going to great lengths to try to squash any possibility of this happening for us, so I want to (A) legally vacation with our child, and (B) properly and legally inform him that I will be doing so.
I have emailed him the approximate dates, indicating I will be more precise once the flights are booked. Is this enough or do I need to send it certified-mail? Or try to get him to sign something stating he received it?
