Judge Denies Ex-Wife's Proposal to Move 20 Miles From Manhattan
A man who followed his ex-wife to New York City from Colorado to be closer to their child has won his bid to block her from making a 20-mile move to the suburbs.
Finding the woman's reasons for relocating "undefined" and questioning her motivation, Family Court Judge Lori S. Sattler (See Profile) concluded in S.F. v. G.F., V-15616-09/V-12319-09, that relocating, even a short distance, would adversely impact the couple's daughter by reducing her from "a child with two full-time parents to one full-time parent and a part-time parent."
A year after Sara Foster relocated to Manhattan from Denver, she asked a judge for permission to move to Scarsdale, N.Y., saying the extra space would benefit her family.
Her ex-husband, Gregg D. Farber, opposed the move, which he said would make him a "weekend dad" and marginalize his role in their 5-year-old daughter's life.
