Types of Sole Child Custody Orders

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

Child custody orders are given when a couple is going through a separation or divorce. The child custody orders are designed to determine who will take care of the children and who will make decisions for the children. If you are planning to seek child custody and would like to have the children live with you and make all of the important decisions regarding their care, you would be seeking “sole” child custody in your case.

Sole legal custody means that you and not the other parent will “have the right and the responsibility to make the decisions relating to the health, education, and welfare of a child” as stated in California Family Code Section 3006.

Sole physical custody means that your child or children “shall reside with and be under the supervision of [you], subject to the power of the court to order visitation [for the other parent]” as stated in California Family Code Section 3007.
