There are no lawsuits against adultery.
Relocations are rarely granted, and I'd say that, if her only reason for wanting to relocate are so that she can be with her boyfriend, her chances of having a relocation granted are just about nil.
Florida law doesn't favor women over men in terms of custody, though more women get custody because that's usually what couples end up agreeing to.
