Houston Divorce and Geographic Restrictions
Frequently our office receives questions pertaining to geographic restrictions imposed by a final decree of divorce. Unless the parents agree to another arrangement, the primary conservator of the minor children is restricted by court order in where he/she may live with the children. Usually, when parties divorce in Houston, the primary parent is limited to Harris county, Texas and the contiguous counties -- meaning the counties that are directly touching Harris County. This is actually a very broad area as the contiguous counties include Brazoria, Fort Bend, Waller, Montgomery, Liberty, Chambers, and Galveston counties.
