No. You and your wife have identical rights to your children, unless a court has ruled otherwise. If you believe she is about to do this, you should file for divorce, immediately file an instanter motion with the court that the child remain within the jurisdiction of the court. I see from your zip code that you are in Phenix City, is she moving across the river, or far away? In any event, you must get into a court to get relief here.
