You need to file a motion for modification and ask for a restraining order and also ask for temporary orders.
By the way, in Texas it is a felony to fail to follow a visitation order (that is, to refuse to surrender the child to Mother on Mother's visitation days).
It is ALSO a felony to put a child into a situation that is a danger to her physical or emotional health.
