Legal Question in Family Law in California

Hello,

I have a 4 year old daughter with a woman in California. I have always had her over 60% of the time. A year ago, I discovered she was lying and saying I was not involved I my daughter's life and drawing welfare. When I went to court, she did not show up, so they stuck with my proof that I had her I believe it was about 84% of the time. She just moved out of county and is trying to say she wants to move my daughter there and have her go to school there. I obviously believe my house and environment is a better suit for a child in school, or a child in general, and also feel my daughter should not be uprooted from her town and her life here. My question is, is that custodial amount that was determined in the court for welfare ordered, or just proof for child support? What do I do, just file for emergency full custody since there technically is not a court ordered agreement? That was the only court date we have ever had.

You absolutely need a family law court order setting out both custody and timeshare. Please meet with an experienced family law attorney to assess your legal options.
