OPINION

Justice NEWMAN.

The issue presented in this case is whether the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1738A (PKPA), is the controlling authority in determining if Pennsylvania has continuing jurisdiction of a custody matter where Pennsylvania courts had initial jurisdiction, but the custodial parent has moved the children to another state and the non-custodial parent remains in Pennsylvania.
