Is it a crime if a father forcefully take infant out of house without mother's consent?
If you mean that the father hit the mother, and that is the reason she left the father, then no, that is not grounds to obtain custody. The courts usually award custody to the mother, unless she is unable to care for the child, or if she has been proven an unfit parent. Hitting a woman, especially the mother of your child, may actually go against you in a custody suit against the mother, and the mother had every right to take the child and leave if the father of her child hit her. The courts may also look at it as if the father hits the mother, then he may hit the child, too.

If an unfit mother of US origin is married to an illegal alien from Mexicodoes the illegal father have grounds to sue for custody if he can prove she is unfit?
The biological father of a child always has the right to sue for custody of his child. Whether his immigration status will cause problems for him being awarded custody and or being allowed to stay in the country is a totally separate issue however. Solely based on the best interests of the child if the mother is truly abusive or neglectful the father should intervene in order to protect the child, irregardless of his legal status. While he may be deported and unable to obtain custody himself the state will assess the child's living situation and move to protect the child if it is appropriate.

By petitioning the court with jurisdiction for a modification in the custody order, wait for the court hearing and then provide compelling evidence and documentation why it would be in the best interests of the child for the mother to have custody. I would strongly recommend you obtain the services of an attorney experienced in family law to assist you.
