Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

I was given Legal custody of my son, now his dad and i are married...

A couple years ago my now husband was ordered to pay child support and i was granted legal custody. Since we are married does that make it null and void now? i dropped the child support , but if we end up spliting up again at first can he just take the child? or would it be kidnapping since i have the old order?

The old orders would likely be modified pursuant to a Divorce Decree. Neither of you are really entitled to just "take" the child. There eaither needs to be an agreement reached regarding access, or you should seek appropriate Court orders.

Please contact me if I can help.
