There are a total of about 100 serial killers in custody, in the United States.
There is no such provision for 49 states. In some states, a mother is presumed to have sole custody if no father is named on the birth certificate, in other states, a mother is presumed to have initial custody under the same circumstances, other states presume joint custody even if no father is named (someone had to do it, right?) and some states have no presumption of custody at all. For the law in each state, you will have to do your own homework on that.
Presumptive joint custody is not mandated by any specific state in the United States. Joint custody decisions are typically made on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration the best interests of the child. However, some states, such as Arizona, California, and Nevada, have passed legislation that encourages joint custody arrangements and minimize preferential treatment for one parent over the other. Ultimately, joint custody decisions are up to the discretion of the court in each individual case.

As your husband left you all in New Mexico and went to California without paying the money or even bothering to visit the children and as you ar ethe primary parent you can claim full custody of them. IMPROVED ANSWER: You MUST contact the court to request this. Only the court has the power to order the change to the custody award. Given the circumstances it is quite possible you may be awarded full custody. Added; Also contact the court regarding the failure of the father to pay child support. All states have mutual compacts beween them which enforce each other's custody awards and support orders. Both the New Mexico AND the California authorities should be made aware of it, perhaps they can 'convince' your ex to pay his court ordered support.
