It depends on what the Nevada order says. His action in Nevada was illegal on a lot of levels, but until you get the truth before the Nevada judge, you could have real problems. You need to contact a Nevada family law attorney in the county where he filed and get the Nevada proceeding thrown out, right away. Otherwise the California authorities are going to believe the Nevada order is proper and enforce it.
