¶2I concur in the result. In my opinion, where the parties have joint legal and physical custody, the burden of proof is upon the party seeking to relocate to first show there has been a material change in circumstances that would justify a change in the cus*976tody arrangement. Custody is the first issue that must be decided. Obviously, relocation of the children would amount to a modification of custody by transferring physical custody to the parent who desires to relocate. Therefore, I would require the parent who desires to relocate to prove that the new custody arrangement should be adopted by the court.
