Hi all
got a small problem re a holiday in april 13 . been looking around for advice which has taken me round the net a few times and more and i have ended up here hopefully for the best .
so as normal me and the ex have split up about a month ago. things are good nothing bitter or nasty at the mo we have agreed days and nights with the lo (1 yr old) between us with out any sols or courts.
but we are at locks with a holiday next year . the holiday is a big family one my side which covers alot of birthdays ( mum and dads 50th brothers 18th my 30th and lo 1st ) which my mum and dad have paid for 9 of us to go to disney for 2 weeks.
now me and the ex have split the holiday is up in arms £2k down and the rest to be paid feb 13.
i understand if i have read things right that i need my ex to give permisson which is 60/40 at the mo for him to go but i was wondering is there any way to get it offical as i am scared that she will say yes he can go and last minute she changes her mind
thanks
Hi,
If they ex wont give you permission, then you can apply to court for a Specific Issue Order requesting the courts permission to go on holiday.
It will be £200 fo the application fee, and should be relatively simple to represent yourself.
As well as the SIO mentioned above, I would have it written in that you get the passport ahead of time - ideally about 6 or 8 weeks just in case it gets "lost".
