Mother files motion for custody
Can, but the father can challenge it in probate.
If you mean that the father hit the mother, and that is the reason she left the father, then no, that is not grounds to obtain custody. The courts usually award custody to the mother, unless she is unable to care for the child, or if she has been proven an unfit parent. Hitting a woman, especially the mother of your child, may actually go against you in a custody suit against the mother, and the mother had every right to take the child and leave if the father of her child hit her. The courts may also look at it as if the father hits the mother, then he may hit the child, too.
If there is joint custody of the child then the father should be told by the mother where she is going with the child and for how long. If the mother wants to live in another State the courts will have to decide visitation rights. Example: The father has may have the child one or two weeks during the summer; possibly Christmas or alternative Christmas', etc. If the father does not have joint custody then the mother can leave with the child to another State without his permission, but to be fair to the child the father should be informed unless the father has a criminal record; drugs, etc., and is an unfit father.
If the father has sole custody of a child, and agrees to let a step-mother spank his child then yes, she can. However, if there is joint custody it has to be an agreement between all parents, otherwise there can be legal repercussions.
Yes unless he goes to court to have the support order modified. He is responsible for that child regardless of where the mother is. However, he can get a court order to have the child returned. The mother has no right to leave the country without the father's, and court's, consent. Most countries in the Western World have some sort of reciprocal agreements regarding child custody.
.
they can divorce or the father can leave the family.
Yes if the father has joint custody he may leave the state with the child for a short period for purposes of a vacation.
If it's his turn, and the court gave 1/2-and-1/2 custody. Maybe.
Mother or Father, but most states won't let anyone leave once divorce proceedings started until custody determined and then the custodial may do it if they have 100%.
it depends on your custody papers and what they say... if you have joint custody NO.... if you have residential custody maybe with court allowing it.... if you have sole custody then you would need to inform him but you could leave!!!
If not married the mother naturally have custody and rights to the child while the father have to go to court to get it. If married the parents have equal rights.in case of divorce it's this the couple will have to agree or leave it to the court to decide.
Getting custody and the right to leave the country are separate matters. see link
No. If you are not married the mother have custody automatically since birth. The only way for the father to get it is by proving paternity in court and he can then petition for custody, visitation and pay child support. Until then he can not stop her and the child form leaving. If you are married she can also leave with the child and so could you since you both have equal right to the child then.
maybe
The mother have custody. The father have to prove paternity by providing a DNA test and he can then get his parental rights and petition for custody, visitation and pay child support.
Can, but the father can challenge it in probate.
