CHILD CUSTODY

Sole physical custody mean that the child will reside with, and under the supervision of, ONE PARENT, subject to the court's power to order visitation. This is not the order you wish to receive. It is given many times where there was NO DETRIMENT shown and the order should have read JOINT PHYSICAL CUSTODY.

Joint physical custody means that each parent will have significant periods of physical custody with the child regardless if one parent has visitation or not. It is during the visitation time that that parent actually has physical custody.

If this is not what was ordered you have to ask why ?
