me and my boyfriend broke up and he moved to another state he left me and my baby .. Now we have court to see how custody is gonna work..any ideas how they do it when a child is so young .. I dont want my princess to be away from me when shes so little seven months old and she is so attached to me and her brother…

Then you should have waited to have princess until you were in a committed relationship or , oh my god married! He has just as much right to see her as you have the right to expect him to pay to support her.

Her son is 6 years old and told her that he is being touched and forced to do other things when he is at his dads house. Not by his dad but by the dads step son that is 8 years old. They have joint custody, legally she cant keep him from going to his dads house. What can she do? she filled a police report today but the child will have to go back to the fathers house in two days.

The reason why Im asking is because im planning to get sole custidy for my kid …her father is a gang member…and i just want raise her with good morals.. i want to know if hell get alot of righs

Yes… he could get partial custody, but it comes down to the judge’s final decision. You need to prove to the judge in court that he is an unfit father and that your daughter’s well being with be in danger. Just saying "he’s a gang member and has bad morals" will not hold up. He could say something like "my visitation days with my daughter will be at my grandmother’s home", and a judge may okay that. You need to find a way to prove that your daughter cannot be around her father at all.

My fiance has a school-aged child who he only sees twice a week, with occasional sleepovers. He would like to have her more often, but he is worried his ex-wife will be able to bring up his past regarding his previous girlfriend (the one before me), who was less than ideal.

I, on the other hand, do not do drugs, do not drink, and there is absolutely no domestic violence between the two of us. His child is perfectly safe in our home, and they have built a great parent-child relationship.

Will his ex-wife, or her attorney, be able to bring up the relationship he was previously in before me? Or will the court just look at the now?

The ex-wife/attorney will most likely bring that up and, in fact, will bring up anything they can in order for him not to get what he wants unless they approve of it.

It’s up to him to prove to the court that he is in a healthy relationship that will not affect the child’s life in any negative way.

The mother of my child said she will be serving me court papers for custody of our daughter. She has told me when the court dates are, but has not yet served me. How long does she have before the court date is pushed back?
so how long does she have to serve me the papers if a third party serves me before the court date is no longer valid or pushed back?

She can’t serve you papers. She’s a party to the suit.

Only a process server or deputy sheriff can serve court documents.

If she serves them, the service will not be valid.

Divorcing In California http://www.sanmateo-divorce.com/practice-areas/divorce/ Don’t let the heat of the moment fog your thinking and lead you down the wrong path to your family’s future. Often couples going through a divorce aim their weapons at each other without fully understanding what’s at stake and the risks they face in making emotional decisions. You must be a California resident for six months and a county resident for three months in order to file for divorce, or a dissolution of marriage. California is a no-fault state, meaning that grounds aren’t necessary to file — irreconcilable differences between spouses is enough. A no-fault divorce frequently allows divorces to move through the courts more swiftly. The earlier in the process our lawyers can help you attack and resolve the legal matters of your divorce — such as division of property, child support, child custody and visitation — the sooner and more easily your children can adapt to their new family structure.
