In Ohio, your rights will be determined by the Divorce Decree or Shared Parenting Agreement that you have with her through the Court. If there is a provision in the Decree or Agreement that she petition the court for permission to move, then you can file a contempt of court motion and have her explain to the court why she should not be held in contempt for failing to abide by the Court's orders.
