Ala. Code § 30-3-169.4: Burden of Proof.
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 30 Marital and Domestic Relations.
- Chapter 3 Child Custody and Support.
- Article 7A Alabama Parent-Child Relationship Protection Act.
In proceedings under this article unless there has been a determination that the party objecting to the change of the principal residence of the child has been found to have committed domestic violence or child abuse, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that a change of principal residence of a child is not in the best interest of the child. The party seeking a change of principal residence of a child shall have the initial burden of proof on the issue. If that burden of proof is met, the burden of proof shifts to the non-relocating party.
