Does a 16 year old have to move to another state with mom if dad has custody or does mom have to go to court first to get custody?

If Dad has custody, not only does the 16 year old not HAVE to move with Mom, the 16 year old CANNOT move with Mom. That's how custody works. If Mom wants to take the 16 year old, Mom will have to go to court and obtain custody first (and, especially if the 16 year old doesn't want to move, which from the way the question is worded I'm guessing might be the case, she's not terribly likely to get it).
The answer depends on the details and whether there is agreement between the parents. If the father agrees to (or has requested) the change in custody the parties must petition the court for a modification of the custody order. Mother must also seek permission from the court to remove the child from the state. She would need legal custody to enroll the child in school, insurance and to obtain medical treatment.
If the father does not agree the mother must petition the court for the change in custody and residence and the court will render a decision that it deems to be in the best interest of the child.
