planning to leave Father of child, worried that he might try taking baby without permission, in my state father on birth certificate has same rights as i do without a court issuing custody. Any advice on how i get custody before leaving??

You can’t leave the state without getting a court order changed. They do this to keep the parents, when seperated, from moving far away and not allowing access to the child to the other parent.

Ok, I have a question, my husband has a child from a previous relationship. Well we have full custody of him and my husband has been paying back child support. Now the mother has passed away due to natural causes. Does my husband still owe the back child support? He is raising his son and the money was going to the mother, shouldn’t he be able to get that back support canceled? We live in Michigan. The child’s mother didn’t have any other family but the child. We just want to know what will happen to that.

no, the money goes to no one now. the money was origionally suppose to go to the MOTHER and now she is no longer alive so he pays nothing.

Father is non abusive to son and is very supportive of his son’s concerns and education. The son is 14 years old and has been through a lot while living with mom. Since he has been spending time with his father, he has a better attitude and is more interested in his education. He currently is living with his aunt (mother’ sister) since the mother had custody, but his father picks him up on the weekends. He enjoys interacting with his father. Will the father have to get an attorney or can he just file the paperwork himself.

file the paperwork yourself, at age 12 most children can choose witch parent they want to live with, it sounds like MOM is current UN_FIT to parent and the father is very involved, the young adult can in writing send his wishes to the court to be read for the record.

Mother has custody of son and has been sentenced to jail time of at least 3 years. Father pays child support for son and wants to cancel it and get custody of son so that he can raise him. Mother does not have a job and father is employed. Son wants to live with father.

The first concern of the courts will be the best interests of the child, and if the child is old enough, his or her wishes are apt to be considered by the judge in making the decision. Under the circumstances described, it is very reasonable to seek a modification of the custody of the child.

State of Florida.
Parents are unmarried from conception through the birth of their child.
Father is not named on the birth certificate.
Couple is no longer together, the father having moved out, leaving the child to live with the mother full time.
Does the mother automatically have full custody by default in this situation? Does the father have any legal custody rights at this point, or will those rights be granted only after he files a case in court?

if the father has not paid child support & abandoned the child to the mothers care. he will have to prove paternity in this case since he is not named as the father. If proven to be the father he will have rights, but not get custody of the child unless he can prove the mother unfit. he can get visitation with the child, but only through the courts. he has no rights other than those that are morally right for the child which should be the first & foremost in the mind of both parents. Having a father in a child’s life is indeed very important ( depending on the character of the father realistically , not because of a mothers anger)*

My sons father and i never went to court for custody. We went to mediation for visitation but he never stood my the agreements, he never took him when he was SUPPOSED to. I plan on getting married to my boyfriend and joining the navy. My question is could he take custody because of this, or will i not be able to join because he has visitation, or will it just need to be revised? He pays childsupport if that has anything to do with it.

Naturally as the baby’s father he can sue for custody at any time for any reason…..your defense is strengthened by the fact he does not maintain a presence in the baby’s life like he agreed to…. he does not visit when his son is available ; why should he object to your son not being readily available.
His suing for child custody should not impact your enlistment in the Navy.

My recommendation: Get married….have your new husband adopt the child…(this will terminate child support obviously…. meaning your ex will be inclined to support the action)…. then get on with your new family and your new life

the mother didn’t want to be tied down so they broke it off and They agree child will live with the father. The father is going for full custody. but one day the mother came with the cops, the father showed the court papers[it is not final yet that he has full custody until december] but the cops still gave the child to the mother. So my other question also is …. Is she allowed to do that?? Is it legally right??

no, the father in this case is gonna make some bling bling. its not illegal until the case is final who is gonna have custody. till then the father should not argue with the the mother of the kids and just keep his cool and just make a report with the cops for any future proof of the incident.

My sister in law has a 2 yr old daughter whom my husband and I help provide for at the moment due to the fact that she is incarcerated. The childs grandma has temp custody of her. The father of the child is now seeking full custody of her and he isnt even employed. Due to the fact that the childs mother is in prison for the moment and even though the grandmother has temp custody, what are the chances the father will recieve custody?

The court will make certain conditions to met before he can take the child. From what i read, all he needs is sufficient employment, and he should be able to take the child.

I’m an American and my French girlfriend is pregnant by a French man in France. We have been together for almost 3 years before this happened. She have been pregnant for 4 months now. We are still deeply in love and want to get married. I have so many questions about this situation. Can she gain entry into America while being pregnant? When we are married, can the father win custody if the baby is born in America? Where can I find pregnancy immigration laws on situations like this?

She could become a US citizen after you are legally married for 2 years. The baby would not be born a US citizen because his mother will not be when its born, but may become one later, once its mother is, if she has custody. Its father can definitely win custody. To know his odds, you would have to know a few things about the parents and the way they deal with this stuff in France and I don’t know about that so that’s all I can tell you.
