Re: 17yo refuses to move out of state w/me
Assuming her father gives permission, at that age I do not know of any way to force her to move. I am not even sure that a court would force the move. Even if you take the matter to a court, by the time it gets decided, she would be near or at 18.
I would suggest a none-legal approach.
