In Montgomery
County, Maryland, the Court typically considers “reasonable visitation”
for the non-custodial parent to be alternating weekends from Friday to
Sunday, alternating holidays, at least 2 weeks of summer vacation and a
midweek visit for dinner or overnight.
When parents do not live in the same geographical area, reasonable
visitation may include 1 weekend per month, alternating holidays and
extended visitation up to 7 weeks during the summer.
The Court can also require parents to share transportation
responsibility and costs to exchange custody when parents do not live in
the same geographic area, including airfare, hotels or other reasonable
expenses.
Keep in mind that the Court determines reasonable visitation
case-by-case based on the best interests of the particular child.
