Was this a permanent move? If so, if there is a residency restriction you can file for the court to enforce the residency restriction.

I think you need to hire a lawyer to help you. Look on this website and on www.avvo.com for help.

If the person took the child on a trip, there is normally no travel restriction about removing the children from Texas for merely visiting another location.

I hope this helps.
