STIPULATED ORDER OF JOINT CUSTODY
The joint plan to implement joint custody is submitted on behalf of Roughneck and Roughneck's Ex wife for custody of the minor children namely, Lindsay Brooke, born 23 June 1993 and Kaylee Celiste, born 20 July 2000, both born of the marriage, and Ryan Chase, the natural son of Roughnecks Ex-wife and adopted son of Roughneck (hereinafter the minor children are sometimes referred to as the "Minor Children").
The intent of this agreement is to assure the Minor Children of frequent and continuing contact with both parents and to encourage and facilitate the ability of the parents to share the rights and responsibilities of child rearing.
A. PHYSICAL CUSTODY
The parents are both fit and proper persons to have the care, custody and control of the Minor Children. However, considering the belief, interest and welfare of the Minor Children, the parties have agreed to rest their physical and residential care, custody and control with the mother and father as specified below. The parties consider legal custody to be joint and shared.
The primary domicile of the Minor Children shall be at the residence of the mother, who is designated as the domiciliary parent of the Minor Children, except as provided in Paragraph M below.
Except as provided herein, the children shall be subject to rules and regulations agreed upon by the parents.
The parties are encouraged to communicate frequently about all factors affecting the welfare of the children.
Each parent should maintain sufficient flexibility to allow for variations made necessary by the ebb and flow of work schedules, social, educational and recreational life.
Each parent should not ignore the input of the other by the failure to communicate or use the children to inform each other of decisions on important matters.
B. CONSULTATION CONCERNING CHILDREN
The parties are encouraged to communicate about all factors affecting the welfare of the children.
No Alienation of Affection. Neither the father nor the mother shall attempt, or condone any attempt, directly or indirectly, by any artifice or subterfuge whatsoever, to estrange the children from the other party, or to injure or impair the mutual love and affection of the children.
At all times, the parties shall encourage and foster in the children sincere respect and affection for both parents and shall not hamper the natural development of the children*s love and respect for the other parent.
Records and information. All information regarding school, report cards, conferences, trips, functions, meetings, etc. shall be furnished to the non-domiciliary parent upon receipt or knowledge thereof. The parents shall not communicate through the children, or third parties, or use the children because they refuse to communicate. The non-domiciliary parent has the right to medical, dental, health, school or educational information and records directly from the source.
Address and Phone Numbers. Each party agrees to keep the other party currently advised of the other*s residence and business address and telephone numbers at all times.
C. REMARRIAGE
Upon remarriage, either party may seek a modification as provided in Paragraph G below.
D. SUPPORT AGREEMENT
Child Support. The father shall pay ONE THOUSAND AND NO/100 ($1,000.00) DOLLARS per month towards the support of the Minor Children. Roughnecks Exwife waives any income assignment. The child support is payable on the 15th and the last day of each month.
Insurance. Roughneck is to maintain medical insurance on the minor children and the parties are to split all medical and dental expenses not covered by insurance 50/50. Any party due reimbursement by the other party shall pay the reimbursement within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice detailing what the insurance has paid and/or what the insurance will not pay.
Temporary Periodic Support. Roughneck shall continue to pay the bills of the community for six months after the judgment of divorce (or until 13 November 2002) in lieu of temporary periodic support.
Tax. Roughneck shall have the Federal and State tax credit for the three Minor Children.
E. EDUCATION
The parents are encouraged to communicate on educational decisions. In case of dispute, Paragraph G shall prevail. Both parents are entitled to any and all records of the children from all schools and teachers directly from the source.
F. TRANSPORTATION
Each parent shall be responsible for transportation while the children are in the residence. If a parent is unable to pick-up or drop off the Minor Children because of work schedule or any other reason, any immediate family member may be substituted and authorized to exchange the children.
G. PLAN MODIFICATION
Each party may seek judicial modification of this plan. The parties shall furnish to the Court any modified plan by joint motion. The joint modification shall be effective after Court approval, but may be retroactive if agreed by the parties and/or approved by the Court.
H. MEDICAL AND DENTAL
Both parents are entitled to all records and communications to include but not limited to the children*s medical and dental treatments. Except in emergencies, the domiciliary parent is responsible for all medical, psychiatric and dental treatment decisions. In an emergency, the parent with physical custody shall be responsible for such decisions. Substance abuse treatment is deemed medical treatment.
Each parent shall notify the other parent of any medical emergency or illness suffered by the children which requires medical attention and/or hospitalization consultation within twenty-four (24) hours. Failure to notify shall render that parent liable for the full amount of the medical bill together with all medication prescribed by the physician. The purpose of this clause is to facilitate communication between the parties when the children require medical attention.

The children shall have reasonable access to communication with each parent. No communication shall be intercepted, censored, or monitored. Each party shall provide the other with a phone number and address of the children*s whereabouts at all times.
