(RC3313.672 (B)(1)
If legal custody is being established or changed, the petitioner has sixty (60) days from the date of enrollment to produce a signed Journal Entry of Judgement establishing a change in custody. In order for your child to be enrolled in the Eastwood School District during that waiting period, you must provide a copy of the filed/date stamped motion petitioning the court for a change in custody.
If someone other than the parent has been given legal custody of the child, you must provide a copy of the court order transferring custody.
The general rule in Ohio is that an unmarried female who gives birth to a child is the sole residential parent and legal custodian of the child until a court issues an order designating another person as the residential parent and legal custodian. (RC3109.042) In such cases, the mother will be asked to sign an Unmarried Parent Affidavit stating that she was not married to the father, and that legal custody of the child has not been assigned to either parent by the court.
