Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I have Split custody with my ex over my son so that we get him every other week. She was suposed to pick him up July 1st at 6PM, and never showed up. Each day she said "i'll be there tomorrow." and still not showing up. since her week will be practically over when (if) she picks him up this week, do i have to release him now, or can i wait untill her next following week?

I haven't seen your order BUT my guess is that it designates specific days and times that she picks up the child - "every other Friday at 6:00 pm." That's when you're ORDERED to surrender the child - not any other times. If she shows up at a different time, you can just say NO.
