The Texas Family Code provides a Standard Possession Order, which is presumed to be appropriate in most circumstances. However, each circumstance is unique, and the Courts will customize and tailor an Order to fit the unique circumstances of an unusual situation if the case is intelligently presented. A change in the location of a parent may justify amending a visitation order, or changing the point of exchange for the child. A decision of a parent to move the residence of a child 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.
