1) Phone or go to the county courthouse.
2) Find the “Clerk of Court” office.
3) Ask the nice lady about the proper forms.
4) Fill them out and file them.
I Assume there has already been some court involvement. She needs to go to that courthouse. She will also need the previous case number.She will be filing a motion to transfer custody. The clerk’s office will file this (filing fee?) and a hearing date will be set. Then you appear before the judge and he makes the ruling. Oh yeah, there may be some fee for notifying the mother of the hearing date too. piegowdealer

You can’t do this without a lawyer as things could really get screwed up. Also, the courts may need to sign off on this. Go find a good family law lawyer!
Good luck! pragmatism_rules
