Her ex would need to file a complaint with the court in order to keep the child in the state. However, he would need to show a good reason for why the child needs to stay in the state and why he cannot visit the child in another state.

Has he filed a complaint with the court or threatened to do so? Where does your daughter want to move? Does she have full custody? Does the ex pay child support?
