Q. My ex wife mother of my children is trying to move out of state with my kids. I live in Kentucky. What are my options?
A: Hello,

If you already have an open custody case, you will need to file a motion requesting the Court to enter an order prohibiting the kids from moving out of state.

If you do not have a custody action open, you will also need to file a petition, then the above mentioned motion once the action has been successfully served.
Q. How do you file a contempt order in Kentucky family court pro se?
