1. Write a PAPER LETTER to her immediately. Keep a copy. Tell her you're coming on July 1 at 6:00 pm to pick up the kid. Tell her to have the kid ready.
2. Show up at Mom's house on July 1 at 6:00 pm.
3. If she doesn't surrender the child, go IMMEDIATELY to a lawyer (in fact, make the appointment in advance) and have him file an application for writ of habeas corpus.
I would agree with what Mr. Dunn has stated above. A great deal will depend upon which Court/Judge will be deciding the issue. I would be glad to discuss this matter further with you if you would contact me directly. Bruce C. Zivley
