Yes, of course she should.
If she abandons the child, yes.
If the mother has legal custody but leaves the state and doesn't have physical custody of your child then that must mean the child is with someone who doesn't have custody. I assume you are not married. In that case, you must establish your paternity in court and request legal and physical custody. If the mother has left the state without taking her child with her the court will certainly want to know who the child is with and will certainly consider awarding legal custody to the other biological parent, you.Perhaps you can convince the mother to consent to your getting legal and physical custody. If not sole custody, then joint legal and physical custody.You should consult with an attorneywho specializes in custody issues. The attorney can review your situation and explain your rights and options.
No he is not it his half brother but he has custody over him because their mom is an unfit mother
You have the right to file for a change of custody with the court. You will have to present convincing evidence that the child's mother is unfit to retain custody of the child. Frankly: It is a stiff burden of proof to overcome to convince the court to remove a child from its mother's custody.
Yes. He would have to petition the court for custody.
No one person in a joint custody case has total say so. Visitation rights and times are completely up to the residing judges discretion.
Even though the mother is underage she still has custody of her child as long as she does not do something to get custody taken away from her
A mother who has sole custody of a child may leave the state with the child. If the mother shares custody, she has to have consent for the other parent or the court before leaving the state with the child.
If your father was given total custody of you and your brother then he could go to court to get you back. However, (and you would have to ask your mother this) if your mother and father have joint custody (such as you or your brother seeing your mother on spring break or other holidays) then child support would continue as was instructed by the courts. If your father had total custody and your mother never saw you, then she could file for partial child support. I know it's confusing, but simply put, if your father doesn't pay your mother child support she should see at least Child Welfare regarding this matter and your father should be paying her some child support regarding you. Good luck hon Marcy
lost the child to whom?
When married you have equal rights to the child.
Yes. However, an attorney must be consulted in order to get the child's custody to be legally under the child's two mothers. Without consulting an attorney, the child will belong to the mother who birthed the child and the brother who provided the sperm.
