Of course they can. If the child is in need of protection it doesn't matter if you have legal custody. Child Protective Services are given special power to remove children from situations of abuse, neglect, endangerment, etc.
The factors used to determine that a parent is unfit are generally governed by state laws with child endangerment being the determining factor. The following include some of the reasons a parent may be declared unfit:
No. If she tries then the father should immediately seek full legal and physical custody of his child.No. If she tries then the father should immediately seek full legal and physical custody of his child.No. If she tries then the father should immediately seek full legal and physical custody of his child.No. If she tries then the father should immediately seek full legal and physical custody of his child.
Yes. Legal and physical custody granted to the mother means full, sole legal and physical custody.
You need to return to the court that has jurisdiction and petition for full legal and physical custody and the termination of that child support order. It would go much easier if the child's mother would consent to the petition for custody.You need to return to the court that has jurisdiction and petition for full legal and physical custody and the termination of that child support order.

Having full legal or physical custody. If it is full legal custody the mother has given up any legal claim to the child. If it is full physical custody with joint legal custody the child will be in the legal custody parents home. She may elect to give the child up to be adopted by the stepmother. In many states (and maybe in all states) if the custodial parent dies, then the non-custodial parent gains custody, provided that that his/her parental rights have not been terminated (and just because he/she did not have legal custody does not mean that his/her parental rights were terminated). Of course, in that event the stepparent can still petition the court for custody. Check with a local attorney.
no,unless the custody agreement states you cant move without notifying the court
If he has visitation and pay child support you need his and the courts consent.
No, not if he is the other person that has legal custody.
Parents who don't live together have joint custody (also called shared custody) when they share the decision-making responsibilities for, and/or physical control and custody of, their children. Joint custody can exist if the parents are divorced, separated, or no longer cohabiting, or even if they never lived together.
If at the custody hearing, the judge believes that you are the cause of the child's overweight problem, the father could very well win full custody. If you can afford it, hire a lawyer to argue for your side.
I think it depends on how long the mother will be incarcerated for. There might be a hearing giving the father temporary custody. But if the father ever tries to get full physical custody of the child in the future, it might not be good for the mother. However, she can never be refused visitation.
As long as the Intended parents have a legal contract with the surrogate that states that they will assume full custody, the surrogate has NO rights to the child and no chance of gaining custody.
File a motion for full guardianship of a child in need of care.
