Your case is getting messy. I would contact an attorney in your area to speak with regarding the custody issues. Since there is a restraining order out you should follow the restraining order until it expires or new orders are made. You should also document all of the false reports he has made against you with CPS if they are in fact found out to be untrue.
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.
