I was granted temporary custody with my order of protection. Will another state enforce this custody order?

If your order of protection includes custody, visitation, and child support, these parts of the order can be enforced in any state or territory. Law enforcement and courts must enforce your temporary custody order as long as it meets certain federal law standards.1

To have someone read your order and tell you if it meets these standards, contact a lawyer in your new state or territory. To find a lawyer, go to our Finding a Lawyer page and choose the state or territory from the drop-down menu.
