That depends. Is there a custody decree or divorce decree that gives him custody and/or visitation? If so, what are the terms? Even if there are no terms which indicate whether either party can relocate out of state, she could be violating a custody and/or visitation order.
Whether he is paying child support is irrelevant to the issue regarding relocation.
