COURT IMPROPERLY INCLUDED A PROVISION IN THE ORDER DENYING MOTHER’S PETITION TO RELOCATE WHICH WOULD AUTOMATICALLY AWARD CUSTODY TO FATHER IF MOTHER RELOCATES (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department, in affirming the denial of mother's petition to relocate, determined the portion of the order which provided that father would automatically be granted custody upon mother's relocation:

… [The] court erred in including a provision in the order that transferred primary physical custody of the child from the mother to the father in the event that the mother relocates outside of Monroe County, and we therefore modify the order accordingly. Such a provision, “while possibly never taking effect, impermissibly purports to alter the parties' custodial arrangement automatically upon the happening of a specified future event without taking into account the child['s] best interests at that time” … . Matter of Eason v Bowick, 2018 NY Slip Op 06641, Fourth Dept 10-5-18
