No you may not. Most likely the state will place a child with next of kin, if the other parent is unable as well. But depending on what the warrants are for, after you serve your time. You will most likely get the child back. Hope this helps.
In most states the standard for custody of a child is "what is in the child's best interests". Therefore, the answer most probably depends on for what offenses were the warrants issued and what was the final legal disposition of each warrant. Generally, the fact that a parent has warrants against him/her, will not by itself bar that parent from receiving custody. The judge must look at the totality of the circumstances for each parent and what is in the child's best interest.
I'm assuming you mean the other parent is in jail? You also do not say if this is simply an arrest pending charges, or a post conviction? You file an Emergency Child in Need of Care Motion requesting temporary custody pending a full hearing on the matter. see link
yea
They recently changed the laws of custody, No one parent has full custody UNLESS they see the other parent as unstable and unfit. If the parent you want to live with has been deemed unfit as a parent then it will have to be taken to court or you can contact certain child organizations to give you more details about how to leave your current home and return to the home of an "unfit parent" However if one parent obtained full custody of the child and the other parent was not deemed unfit as a parent, you may still live with them because of the recent change in custody laws, stating no one parent can have full or primary custody. (in other words, if your mom has full custody and your dad has none ((Also assuming the father hasn't been charged with being a drug addict, alcoholic, or financially unstable etc.)) you may live with the father)
A parent who is seeking full custody should be prepared to be questioned about every aspect of their lives. A person seeking custody will have to prove that they are a fit parent, have a steady income, a decent home, and can care for the child. They may also have to prove that the other parent is unfit.
Talk to a lawyer to avoid making an error that could jeopardize your custody.
Yes, this could happen.
The parent can petition for custody or can take the matter before a judge who will hear testimony and the issue a ruling.
only for emergency procedures
By determining that the right of a parent to primary custody of the child supersedes the best interest of the child.
Your parent no longer has full custody, it was taken away, so you would be a runaway, and they would be harboring a runaway.
Yes, being granted full custody does not relieve the other parent of their financial obligations to the child(ren).
because 50% of marriages don't work out, so one parent takes full custody or primary custody for the children.
