Go ex parte and get a restraining order against her taking them out of the country.

"County" Mr. Mataele, "county" not "country."

To answer your question I need more facts. Were you married when the children were born? If not, do you have a filed declaration of paternity on file or a judgment of paternity? If not, that is where you must start. If so, do you have an existing custody and support order? If so, you have to look at what it says about moving. If not, you need to file for one immediately.
