Serving the Other Parent

If you know the other parent’s mailing address and are sure that they will receive it, you may mail the

Notice of Change of Address to them, and complete the Certificate of Mailing, then file it with the court.

If you are not sure of the other parent’s mailing address or that they will receive it, you may choose to

serve the Notice of Change of Address Pursuant to ORS 107.159 in the manner that legal pleadings may be

served; i.e., by having service done through the sheriff’s office or through a private process server. After the

documents have been served, the person who serves them should complete and file the Affidavit of Service

form with the court.

After the Certificate of Mailing or the Affidavit of Service has been filed with the court, it will then be

up to the other parent to take action if they object to your proposed change of residence. Should the other

parent challenge your address change, you will be notified by service with the necessary court papers.

If You Are the Other Parent

If you receive notice from the other parent that s/he intends to move more than sixty miles further away,

it is up to you to take steps to object to the proposed change of residence, if you wish. IMPORTANT: If you

object to the move, you will need to take legal action. It is strongly advised that you consult with an attorney

to determine your rights and the appropriate documents to file. Please see Packets 6B and 6C regarding “status

quo” orders and Packet 4 regarding modifications for more information on how to keep the schedule and

location of your child/ren temporarily the same, or on how to make changes to your custody and parenting time

judgment.
