Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
My husband and I have been separated for a little over 2 years. Our separation agreement was notarized but never filed. Circumstances have changed so much that our agreement is not really followed by either party. He is listed as custodial parent because the military lawyers stated that someone must be. We shared the children one week with one parent and one week with the other. I transported them an hour one way to school and back every day that I had them. I was laid off from my job at the end of May and moved to MI for another one from NC, where we had resided. We had a verbal agreement that he would keep the children for the remainder of the summer and that I would get them for the school year. We had filed for divorce in May but it has not yet been finalized. He waited until this week to let me have the children and has now said that he changed his mind and wants them back for the school year. For that to happen, I would only have had my children for 2 weeks. What legal action can I take to ensure that I get to have my children? Can he take action against me if I enroll my children in school here in MI? And can I file for custody here or must it be done in NC?

It is obvious that you were foolish enough to agree to things you really don't understand. You don't seem very good at practicing law. Therefore I recommend that you immediately hire an experienced lawyer in the area where your divorce is already filed.
You need to address these issues in the court in which your divorce case was filed. Hiring an experienced divorce attorney would greatly increase your chances of getting what you desire. http://www.wolverinelaw.com
