CUSTODY-LEAVE TO REMOVE CHILD                                              

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends provisions of the Illinois  Marriage  and  Dissolution  of      
   Marriage  Act    concerning  leave  to  remove children from Illinois.      
   Replaces existing   provisions  concerning  the  burden  of  proof  in      
   actions  for  leave  to remove  children from Illinois.  Provides that      
   "if the party having custody of the  child or children seeks to remove      
   them from Illinois within a 250 mile   geographical  radius  of  their      
   residence  at the time of the last custody  judgment, there shall be a      
   rebuttable presumption that such removal is in the  best interests  of      
   the  minor  child  or  children."  Also  provides that "the burden  of      
   proving that it is in the best interests of the child or  children  to      
   remove    them from Illinois outside of a 250 mile geographical radius      
   of their  residence at the time of the last custody judgment is on the      
   party seeking  removal."  Makes other changes in provisions concerning      
   leave to remove  children from Illinois.
