Be careful what you ask for, you may find this matter moved to the child's residence. Speak to an attorney in that area ASAP. Usually the child's residence is controlling not a parents. Florida retains jurisdiction until someone asks for a change.

you are not in a position to move the case, if anything the case would be moved to NY so just keep in in Broward.
