Modification

Sometimes things change after a Final Decree of Divorce or other Order concerning children has been entered that, justify the Decree or Order to be revisited and modified. Changes such as the behavior of the other parent or the desires of the child may justify a change in custody or visitation schedule. A change in the location of the parents may justify changing the point of exchange for the child. A change in the income of the parent paying child support may justify increasing or decreasing the child support. The decision of a parent to move may justify lifting or imposing a domicile restriction. The Texas Courts will not modify an Order to suit trivial or immaterial changes of circumstances. However, if there has been a material change of circumstances, it may be appropriate to ask the Court to change the underlying Order.
