What is the difference between a custodial parent wishing to move and the access parent seeking to move?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Huggins v. Carson, 2001 BCSC 587 (CanLII):
I will observe here that this is not a case of the custodial parent wishing to move and the access parent seeking custody of the children, with an alternative claim for a restraining order; as in the leading case of Goertz v. Gordon (1996), 1996 CanLII 191 (SCC), 134 D.L.R. (4th) 321 (S.C.C.).
