My ex-husband and I were going through a divorce in 2013, even in the midst of our disagreements I still allowed him to have vistiation (when he could because he is in the military) with our 2 children, because nevertheless he is still a good father. In May of 2013 he took my kids from me and returned to the military in El Paso,TX. The courts ordered him to return the kids and he refused. I was awarded temporary custody until the divorce was finalized. In, October of 2013, he still refused to return my kids because he wanted 6 month/ 6months custody from Dallas to El Paso. The judge did not like that idea and neither did I at the time because I was obviously mad at him for taking them without at least informing me. I was awarded full custody and he has an order of no contact with the children due to him not showing at court and the divorce was awarded in my favor. I traveled to El Paso to get my children and I have had them ever since. My question to you is, my ex is not a bad father, I know that. I told the courts that. But in the midst of his difiance, he lost. My kids ask for him and he ask for them, and I dont want to keep my children from their father. How can I reverse the order of custody to joint custody? What do I need to do?
