Idaho Child Custody
Idaho presumes that joint legal and physical Custody is in a child's best interest. Legal Custody is a concept that permits a parent to have decision making power over the major decisions in a child's life, regardless of the child's physical placement. Physical Custody defines the child's residential placement. Joint physical Custody does not mean that a child will necessarily spend 50% of his or her time with reach parent, in fact such schedules are unusual.
Custody is determined according to the best interests of the child. The following are some factors which should be considered in any child Custody decision.
- Wishes of the child's parents;
- Wishes of the child;
- Bond between child and parent and siblings;
- Child's adjustment to home, school, and community;
- Mental and physical health and integrity of all individuals involved
Idaho Child Support GuideLines
Idaho has adopted child support guidelines which apply in virtually every case, unless special circumstances are present. The child support calculation takes into consideration the gross income of both parties, and certain child related expenses. Child support will continue until the child reaches the age of majority, but will be extended through his or her high school education.
Venue
Venue for a divorce in Idaho is determined by residence. An Idaho divorce should be initiated in the county where the defendant resides. If the defendant is out of the state or if his or her address is unknown, then the divorce action will take place in the county where the plaintiff resides.
