Laws current as of July 17, 2024 If I don’t have a custody order, can I get one before a parent deploys?
If you don’t already have a custody and visitation order, either parent can ask the court to set one before a parent deploys or mobilizes. In the paperwork, you need to clearly state that the case is about a military deployment and include details about the deployment.1 The court will quickly schedule a hearing to make a temporary order. This lets the deploying parent spend time with the child and share important information.2
