Relocation Factors
Under A.R.S. 25-408(I), whenever the Court determines whether to grant either a parent’s request to relocate or a parent’s request to prevent relocation, it must consider and make written findings on the eight factors listed in A.R.S. 25-408(I). These factors include the best interest factors under A.R.S. 25-403, and the remaining factors focus on the reason for the relocation and whether it would be in the child’s best interests.
