S7 Ep99: Can You Reopen a Closed Custody Case?

#ChooseGoldman Learn if and how a closed child custody case can be revisited in Michigan. This episode explores the critical factors, such as significant life changes or new safety concerns, that allow courts to modify existing orders. • Closed custody cases can generally be reopened until the child is an adult. • Michigan courts retain ongoing authority (jurisdiction) over child custody. • A "significant change in circumstances" is the primary legal reason to reopen. • New safety or health concerns for the child are also strong grounds. • Reopening a case will likely impact existing parenting time arrangements.
