Is the question of whether Israeli parents bought a property abroad relevant in Hague Convention pleas heard in Israel for the return of allegedly abducted children ?
By: דיאנה שאלתיאל•Published on: 30 May, 2022Yes, it can be indicative of whether the parents intended to uproot from Israel and settle abroad. This is relevant in determining whether Israel or the foreign country is the minors’ place of habitual residence. To change the place of habitual residence of very young children’s country, from Israel to another country, it must be proved that the parents both agreed to do so.
