In New Jersey, you have two options: one is to file a motion in the family court seeking the immediate return and possibly change of custody and two is to file criminal charges for parental interference with custody rights.

In my experience, many parents are reluctant to file criminal charges for parental interference but it is something must consider. The police have a greater and faster ability to enforce custody issues that I Family Court  may.

you should speak immediately with an experienced family attorney.
