What can you do to keep the custodial parent from moving out of state with your child?

This is definitely a matter that needs to be discussed with an attorney.
If there is already a child support and visitation order in place the custodial parent will need to file a motion to get the court's permission to move the child out of state. The court will make a determination that is in the best interest of the child. It will consider how visitations will be arranged and how they will be paid for so as not to cause financial hardship for the non-custodial parent.
If there is no prior court order and the non-custodial parent has not been paying child support nor spending time with the child the custodial parent can try relocating. However, there is always the chance the non-custodial parent will seek rights and it may be more expensive later on to address this issue.
You should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in family law in your state who can review your situation and explain your options.

∙ 11y agoYou have a choice. If the children are in their teens you might consider letting sleeping dogs lie--even as hard as it is. The kids will stay in relative contact with you. If you are seriously concerned about their safety, and you have a court order, you can press charges for their return and the parent will be incarcerated. Again if it was contentious and the kids are fine, let it go.
AnswerA custodial parent already has legal custody. If the non-custodial parent has taken the child out of state the custodial parent should contact the authorities immediately and press criminal charges. A parent who would defy authority and violate the law is not a good guardian for the children and the child's safety should be a major concern. If there is an existing custody order the local authorities where the children have been taken can pick them up and return them to their mother. The mother should visit the court with jurisdiction over the case immediately and notify the authorities of the kidnapping. Non-custodial parents cannot be allowed to disrupt families this way.
