Understanding Jurisdiction in Custody Cases
Simply put, jurisdiction governs a court's right to preside over a case. For a judge to handle a child custody case, that judge's court must have jurisdiction over the custody dispute.
In the U.S., the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) helps streamline custody issues by making it easier for a court to determine a child's home state. Family law courts within a child's home state have jurisdiction over custody issues.
