California Court of Appeal
Keith R. v. Superior Court of Orange County, G041642
Petition for a writ of mandate to challenge a move-away order of the family court is granted where the court used the wrong legal standard to resolve mother's relocation request, applying the "changed circumstances" standard rather than the "best interest" rule to the move-away order in the child custody dispute when there had been no final judicial custody determination.
