My ex is thinking of moving out of state with my girls. I need to know if there is something I can legally do to stop her from leaving the state with my girls. This is a problem because I have tried everything I can to keep my relationship with my ex as civil as possible. BUT that is secondary when it comes to losing my girls. Any advice?
Question: My wife and I moved to Florida 5 months ago from New York which was her idea. Now things dont seem to be working out and we have talked about divorce. She is saying she is going to take the kids back to NY is there anyway I can stop her from taking the kids to NY?? Answer: I am not licensed in the State of Florida and therefore cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of that State. You need to check the residency requirements for Florida to file for divorce in that State. If it is less than five month, get a divorce and request for temporary custody on file. Have her served with the papers before moving back to New York and filing in that location.

I found out through the kids that she plans to move for a new job in Tennessee. She and I do not communicate. I object to the move, because the reason the courts allowed her to move to Arkansas was because the entire extended family is there. She has no friends or family in Tennessee. Is she required to provide me with a notice of intent to relocate? If she moves without my consent or the court's consent, what can I do?
