Can you get sole custody if your spouse still legally married has moved out of state?

Most states lean toward Joint Legal Custody with primary residential custody


What can a non custodian parent do if a custodian parent still refuses to give with the chiild for visitation during the holidays?

If you have a custody agreement that states you are to have the child at specific holidays or alternating holidays, you can file a contempt of court action against your spouse in the court with jurisdiction over the custody case. The non-compliant parent should also be made aware that their failure to abide by the custody agreement can endanger their status as a custodial parent as well if the non-custodial parent files for custody modification based on that. If you don't have a legal custody agreement on file, now would be a good time to get one. Courts are not concerned with "he said/she said" agreements.

What is a managing conservator?

Yes, unless the order for support states otherwise.


Should fathers be given the same chance as mothers to gain custody of their minor children?

YES. Fathers have equal rights to their child just as the mothers do. Mothers should not automatically get sole primary physical custody just because they are women. The family court system in the states is starting to lean towards this. Hopefully it will not take 50 years and umpteen kidnapped children.


If your husband dies will his young child who he has full custody of be sent back to his mother or be allowed to stay with you the stepmother?

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.


Can the parent that has physical custody of the child move to England from the United States?
