You're going to have to file a petition for custody.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.

I agree with Mr. Davidson, but I think first you need to find out exactly where your ex and your son are! Your ex must be personally served with a copy of your Complaint for Custody before the Court will do anything. You must also file your action in the county in which your child now lives.

Best of luck to you!
