Question about jurisdiction

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Wyoming

Hi again all,
My question pertains to a jurisdiction issue. The CP moved to Illinois from Wyoming four months ago and I am concerned if jurisdiction will remain in Wyoming (where I am located and where the original order was established) or can he change it to an Illinois court once he has established residency there.

If he CAN do this, does it occur automatically or are there measures he must take? Wouldn't the judge in Wyoming have to release his jurisdiction to an Illinois court?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
