Syllabus

R.C. 3109.051(G), notice of intent to relocate, R.C. 3109.04, best interest of child, jurisdiction pending appeal, stay of execution, enforcement of judgment, judicial contempt power, denial of objections to parent relocation. The juvenile court had jurisdiction pending appeal to enforce the parenting order that contained a custody determination based on the R.C. 3109.04 best interest of the child factors and set forth a visitation schedule to take effect upon the anticipated filing of the mother's notice of intent to relocate. There was no stay of execution in place. The denial of appellant's objections was not an abuse of discretion. Appellant's objections to relocation exceeded the scope of R.C. 3109.051(G) and attempted to relitigate the grant of relocation. The trial court had authority to exercise its contempt powers. The trial court's denial of appellant's motion for contempt, attorney fees, and sanctions did not constitute an abuse of discretion.
