If she gives the father 60 days notice of the new address, before the move, she might be alright. She may have to make transportation arrangements for the kids to visit their father.
Good luck.
Actually the Relocation statute lists several very specific things that need to be listed in the notice to the father and also requires the letter to be set by certified mail. The father could file an objection to the proposed relocation in court and then either side might also file a Motion to Modify. Unless father agrees to the move, it could involve some expensive litigation. I do handle these on a regular basis.
