You’ll have to prove to a judge that things have changed in your life that make it reasonable to change the order. The judge will look at what’s in the children’s best interests.
For help to change an order, talk to family duty counsel at the courthouse or find out if you qualify for the Family LawLINE phone service (phone numbers below). A family justice counsellor may also be able to tell you how to apply to the court to have the order changed.
