Depends. Could range from nothing to jail to the other parent tracking you down and blowing your face off with a shotgun. Generally speaking, you would only get into legal trouble if there is some court order and / or formal written agreement in place that would be violated by taking the child. Even if there is no court order and / or formal written agreement in place, the court would most likely take a dim view of that if the matter ever went to court at a later date.
