5 verbatim requirements from admin. order (unlisted) [unlisted] BvJFLWorder.
20th Judicial Circuit. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
Verbatim from https://www.ca.cjis20.org/pdf/judge/BvJFLWorder.pdf, harvested 2026-07-25; whitespace normalised only. • (1) the father has applied to enroll the child in kindergarten this year but the school board says the mother must sign off on using the father’s address as the child’s “home address” and the “school choice,” but the mother will not agree to allow the father’s address to be used as the child’s school address and they cannot agree on the child’s school; • (3) the parties do not agree on the school the child should attend or his home address for school purposes. • Their agreement is that they shall share all parenting decisions. “Shared parental responsibility” is one of the three alternatives for parental decision making after parents separate, the other two being “sole parental responsibility” to one parent and “shared parental responsibility with ultimate responsibility to one parent if the parents do not agree on a decision.” • The father is asking the court to change the parties’ settlement agreement and order that he has either “sole parental responsibility” or “shared parental responsibility with ultimate responsibility to one parent if the parents do not agree on a decision.” But the court has no authority to change the parties’ contract. “Parental responsibility” means parenting decision-making, and the “parental responsibility order” does not specify where the child will be living from time to time during the year. • The child might live 100% of the time at his house, say because the mother’s job requires her to go out of state or because she lost her job and her home or for any other reason, but the parties still agreed to “share parental responsibility,” that is, all parenting decisions, so that is what they must do.
