Re: child custody
You can go to court in your area and file an OSC for custody and requesting that she be ordered to bring your daughter back, but I don't know how well it will work.
Re: child custody
Yes, of course you can. You can get visitation of your child, but I doubt the child will live with you full time. If the marriage is over, you can start by filing a dissolution of marriage and OSC in California so you won't have to travel to Florida for every court hearing.
