He can take them out of state for a short time, as in a vacation. He cannot move them more than 50 miles without the permission of the wife or the court. This situation would be covered by Florida's Parental Relocation Statute, Chapter 61.13001.

If married you are not permitted to relocate unles you have written consent from the other parent or a court order. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659.
