Where can I find state laws on moving

We are thinking of relocating to another state but not sure if we have to go through the courts to do it. We have visitation with DD's paternal grandparents and her BF is about to start paying child support but has no visitation on his own. I know the grandparents have no rights in TN and the visitation was just something we agreed on. So I dont know if we have to have something saying we can move. Sorry if I'm rambling but after the day I have had I'm fried.

do you have a court order? if you do and there is no clause on either parent moving you can move wherever and whenever you want.  it is up to your DD's BF to fight for visitation if you move

if there is no CO, you should get one (you can just write up your current agreement, or what you would want, get BF to sign it and file it with the courts, it doesn't HAVE to be a long drawn out process, unless BF fights it)

the grandparents have no rights to fight anything, they would have to get BF to be their backbone.

While it may not be state statute and you may not hae it addressed in the CO, that does not mean that the other parent cannot ask for and recieve an emergency injunction from the court stopping you from taking the child away.

The visitation is with the grandparents not the BF and it is through the courts. I have 100% custody, they just get to have her every other weekend and holidays.
