Legal Question in Family Law in Kansas

I was wondering how do I file a motion to claim my son on my taxes this year?? My exhusband has claimed our son for 5 years because I was unemployed and going to school and now I am working and I want to claim my son on my tax return this year. I need to know what steps I need to do to file this motion.
