That depends on state law where the child legally resides (or country if outside the USA). Every place has a different statute or guideline regarding what constitutes abandonment and in all cases, any extenuating circumstances are taken into consideration before making such a ruling.

Can a parent who has primary custody move with their children to another state if so what is the primary custodial parents responibility to the non custodial parent?

In some states, if the custodial parent moves more than 65 miles "as the crow flies" from the original address at the time of the custody agreement and does not get written permission to do so from the non-custodial parent, the court can (and sometimes will) remove the child and place him/her with the non-custodial parent. At that time the non-custodial parent will be given full custody of the child and even if the first parent moves back, they probably will not regain custody again.

How do you determine coordination of benefits?

Standard coordination of benefits goes in the following order for an active employee, not a retiree: Employee: Policy in which you are the subscriber is the primary. If you are the policyholder on more than one policy, whichever policy has been in effect the longest is primary. Dependent children: For natural parents still married, or without court order, coordination of benefits follows birthday rule. The parent who's birthday falls first within the year (goes by month, not year) is primary. For parents with court order, the parent named is primary. For parents divorced/separated with spouses and no court order, custodial natural parent is primary, then spouse of custodial parent, then non-custodial parent, then spouse of non-custodial parent. If dependent children are also covered by the state, state health policies always are last in line to pay benefits. For retirees (65+) still on employer policies and covered by Medicare, Medicare is primary and employer policies are secondary.
