When would a judge in Arkansas give the non married father custody of a baby?
In Arkansas custody is assigned to an unmarried mother unless there is reason to give custody to another person. A father may get custody if he is determined to be a fit parent and he is able to show the court that it's in the child's best interest to remove the child from the mother's custody and award custody to him.

How do you get temporary custody of a niece when the father is in jail and the mother is on her way to jail the maternal grandparents are not fit and the paternal grandmother is unable?
Get an attorney and petition the court to award you custody. Generally speaking, family courts really like to place children with relatives where possible, so your chances are fairly good. "Not fit" may be just your opinion, but it's certainly possible the court will share it, and the fact that you're stepping up and being proactive about it will likely weigh in your favor.
