Since the kids have lived in Florida for over six months, they are probably now under Florida law. (Kids have to live in a state for six months before the new state's laws apply.) Florida law prohibits a parent from permamnently moving children out of state without a court order or the other parent's permission.
Under current Florida Law she cannot relocate more than 50 miles without your written consent or a court order prior to the move. Contact my office for free consultation.
