Georgia Court of Appeals

Lora Alexa Burnham v. Michael Bruce Burnham

A20A1243 November 2, 2020 Affirmed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue was whether a provision in a separation agreement regarding living within 120 miles constituted a waiver of the right to seek child custody modification based on one party's relocation. The Georgia Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's order, holding that the relocation provision did not constitute an intentional waiver of the parties' rights to modify custody.
