Nope...only GLW

The link previous stated about endangering a minor. Should his ex have a good lawyer and be REALLY predisposed to it (be it revenge/anger about the marriage or whatever.... it is NOT at all uncommon for a couple to use their kids as weapons in divorces...both before and after the court orders come), she could get him on those grounds.

Given that courts are not always kind to those of us on two wheels...or to fathers, I would say he should be very accomodating on this score....regardless of how much of a pain in the rear he may think she is being.

I had a friend here in Houston that almost went to prison over a custody battle that was eventually thrown out of court. His ex was out for revenge and had filed sexual abuse charges against him (that were totally disproven in court FINALLY). He had moved out of state because she was making his life hell...and they literally arrested him sitting in a restaurant reading his bible.....

They took their sweet time in extraditing him from one state to another. In fact, they came just barely within the maximum allowable time for the extradition.

It cost him around $50K for attorney fees to prove he was innocent...and when the judge finally threw the case out, there were indications that he could have sued the prosecutor and others for misconduct...(they wanted that all important conviction record to go up).

So... given that, I would definitely NOT piss off an ex in regards to a REAL if maybe marginal case of endangerment.
