Your husband is protected by California laws which prohibit changing custody orders due to solely the military deployment of military personell. The ex wife should not seek a custody change due to the fact that your husband is deployed because there are laws which prohibit it. If you are doing a good job of taking care of the children in his absence for him, then you should have nothing to worry about due to his military deployment.

For self represented individuals you can consult with the family law facilitator self help center at your local court house.

As always please consult a local attorney prior to taking legal action. Good luck. Also please check out my Santa Clara County Family Lawyer blog.
