Generally no. A change in custody must be made by a court order.

Can custody of a child be stated in a will?
If you live in the US... Children are not property and therefore cannot be 'willed'. You can state in your will who you would like to receive custody, but the court is not required to abide by it. For example, if Mom has custody of a child, she dies and her will states that she wants her sister to receive custody, but Dad wants custody...Dad gets custody, unless he can be proved unfit, because Dad has first legal right to custody (Mom's wishes don't change that).

Can a 14-year-old child in Georgia move in with his dad?
At age 14, according to the laws in Georgia, a child may choose which parent to live with. There are other factors involved, health, education, etc. The issue has to be dicussed with a lawyer and a petition made to the court. If the judge agrees, then the custody agreement is amended and custody changes.

Yes, if his dad has custody of him. You might need to go to court again to get custody of your son, so he won't have to live with his dad. Good luck and God Bless:)
If you die does the child go to the dad?
Taht's dependent on the custody orders.
Does the unmarried mother still have custody of a child if that child has the fathers last name?
If you live in the US... The child having the father's last name has NOTHING to do with custody. If Dad is listed on the birth certificate as the father, then both parents have equal custodial rights until a court declares otherwise--you need a custody order. If Dad is not listed on the birth certificate, it will be a simple thing for him to petition the court to establish paternity and once that's done he can then petition for custody/visitation.
If no court ordered custody and the parents are not married and the mom has a past drug history and the dad has past anger problems can joint custody be given for a child in California?
Only can speak for Arizona: when the parents are unmarried, the dad has no rights except to pay child support. Of course if the child is old enough and the mom does not object, the dad can keep custody.
