How can a custody case be moved?

A divorce was filed in the county in which the now ex-wife and ex-husband lived together. The ex-wife moved to another county years ago and is the custodial parent. The family law case remained in the original county where the divorce was filed. The ex-husband still lives in the original county. If the ex-husband moves to another county, can the ex-wife have the family law case moved to her county?
