(B) Establishes joint legal cutody; or,
(C) Prohibits the child's travel without the permission of both
parents or the court; or,
(D) Requires the permission of both parents or the court for
important decisions, unless permission is granted in writing as
provided therein.
(ii) For passport issuance purposes, a court order providing for
joint legal custody will be interpreted as requiring the permission of
both parents. The Department will consider a court of competent
jurisdiction to be a U.S. state court or a foreign court located in the
child's home state or place of habitual residence. Notwithstanding the
existence of any such court order, a passport may be issued when
compelling humanitarian or emergency reasons relating to the welfare of
the child exist.
