What is the legal test for a parent who says that they will not move with their child if the child is not permitted to move with them?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from P.V. v. D.B., 2007 BCSC 237 (CanLII):
Also of note, in cases where a custodial parent says that they will not move if the child is not permitted to move with them, a court has the option of maintaining the status quo rather than permitting the custodial parent to move with the child or changing custody: see Karpodinis v. Kantas (2006), 55 B.C.L.R. (4th) 90, 2006 BCCA 272 at ¶ 20 (although stating that the status quo must not be overemphasized).
