If you have joint custody, there is one parent that is the custodial parent. A child can move in with you if you are the custodial parent or you can file in court to change your status to the custodial parent. The child should want to live with you as well.
WHY, were you denied joint custody? There must be some reason that a custodial parent would then be denied joint custody.
Joint custody is a court order whereby custody of a child is awarded to both parties. In joint custody both parents are "custodial parents" and neither parent is a non-custodial parents, or in other words the child has two custodial parents.
Generally, only under circumstances in which there is clear evidence that the child is in an unsafe environment, and has been reported as such. And in that case the parent must file for an emergency order with the court of jurisdiction. It will be followed up by a full hearing within a couple of weeks.
That depends on whether the non custodial parent has any legal custodial rights and whether those rights are sole or joint. If the non-custodial has sole legal custody, probably. If not, then no, not for a minor child, not without the permission of the parent with sole or joint legal custody. There are different types of custody, physical and legal. Check your custody order before you proceed to get an answer, or contact an attorney.
Read your support order. You can't usually be joint custody and non-custodial at the same time.
Regarding joint legal custody-a major concern is that although the parent with physical custody is living with the child and managing daily life they still need the consent of the other parent for decisions that affect the child. In some cases the non-custodial parent uses that power to maintain control.
