Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

It depends on what the decree or custody order says. If there is a geographic restriction, then you must file a petition to modify parent-child relationship. An example a geographic restriction is as follows:

"Jane doe has the... exclusive right to designate the primary residence of the child within Dallas County and contiguous counties...."

These issues can be tricky. You need to consult with an experienced family law attorney immediately to determine your best course of action.
