Order Modifying Legal Decision Making Parenting Time {DRMC83f}

DRMC83f - ORDER MODIFYING LEGAL DECISION-MAKING (LEGAL CUSTODY), PARENTING TIME and CHILD SUPPORT. This form is used in the Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County, to request a modification of an existing court order regarding legal decision-making (custody), parenting time, and child support. It is applicable when one or both parties seek changes due to significant changes in circumstances, non-compliance with a previous order, concerns for the child’s well-being, or other justifiable reasons. The court establishes jurisdiction, reviews the case details, and determines whether modifying the order is in the best interests of the child(ren). The form allows the court to modify legal decision-making authority by awarding either sole or joint custody based on the agreement of the parties or court findings. It also addresses parenting time, which may be adjusted to allow reasonable visitation, supervised visits, or the termination of parenting time if deemed necessary for the child's safety. Additionally, child support obligations are reassessed, detailing the amount to be paid, the method of payment, and any applicable deviations from standard child support guidelines. The form further outlines responsibilities for medical, dental, and vision insurance, specifying each parent’s obligations and how uncovered medical expenses will be divided. Tax exemptions for the child(ren) are also allocated, ensuring that the parent required to pay child support can claim the child as a dependent only if all support obligations have been met. Any additional court orders related to the case may also be included. Once the judge or court commissioner signs the order, it becomes a final, appealable judgment, meaning no further claims or modifications can be made unless appealed. www.FormsWorkflow.com
