The parent wouldn't be "taking their child to court". Rather, the parent would be asking the court to intercedeand possibly take over custody of the child. The laws vary regarding unruly minors. Each jurisdiction has a statutory procedure for dealing with juveniles. Those procedures include the following.

A parent who has knowledge that a juvenile has committed a delinquent act or is out of control and in need of supervision may file a complaint with the juvenile court. The complaint will be reviewed on its merits. If the complaint is sufficient, it will become a formal petition and the parents and child have the right to be represented by an attorney. The court may place the child in a juvenile detention facility or in the custody of the state department of human services depending on the circumstances. The juvenile judge will determine whether the child should remain in detention or in shelter care or be released to the custody of his or her parents or guardians.

You should visit the juvenile court in your jurisdiction and ask to speak with an advocate for more information.

Can you force child visitation?

I think you mean if the visiting parent has a court ordered visitation. If the parent has court ordered visitation then yes the child is forced to be with the parent, that is what the court order is for. If the parent has no court order than legally the answer is "no" but i think if both parents agreed to a time for one of them to spend time with their child the child being a minor must do as the parents tell him or her to do.

Can a parent record a child and use it in court?

That strikes me as hearsay evidence, which is generally inadmissible. The court would likely want the child's live testimony. Depends on what is being recorded. Interaction with the child, yes.


If the custodial parent is in jail and not taking care of the child can the other parent move the child to another state without the courts being involved in a emergency situation?

Yes, but the other parent can than have an injunction filed to take it to court, so it would be better to get it court approved. That's less costly than being forced to move the child back pending a hearing.

How do you get parental rights if you have never been married?

You get parental rights by being the parent of a child. Marriage has nothing to do with it. If the other parent won't allow you contact with your child, you must file in civil court.


Can a custodial parent who violates parenting plan and takes child out of state collect child support?

Yes. A child support order isn't automatically modified by other issues. The non-custodial parent can file a motion for contempt with the court and seek a hearing regarding the child being removed from the jurisdiction. That parent should visit the court or contact an attorney for advice.


Can a parent have custody while being a fugitive?

No. If the parent is a fugitive then the child is in danger. If the situation is brought to the attention of the court that has jurisdiction the court can issue an order that terminates that parent's legal custody. If the authorities can catch up with the child they can take physical custody away from the fugitive and kidnapping will be added to the charges.


As the custodial parent can you ask the court to let you live somewhere else?

Yes. If the court has jurisdiction over you and/or your child you can ask the court for permission to move elsewhere. If it will affect the non-custodial parent's visitations with the child there will be a hearing and you must show the court that the move will be in the child's best interest.Yes.

If one parent has full custody of a child and that parent dies will the living parent get the child?

Yes, unless the living parent has a court order not allowing them to be with the child in that case the child would go to the next relative that is willing to take the child. The surviving parent will still have to go to court to have the custody awarded to him/her. After all, the court felt there was a good reason that the full custody award was rendered in the first place.


Can a parent be taken to court for no visitation rights?

It's not the parent who decide whether there will be visitation rights or not, that is the court and a parent is not obligated to petition for one. A parent can not be forced to have a relationship with their child. Apart from paying child support.


Does a child have to see the other parent if there is no court order in the state Michigan?

No. The parent who does not have custody have to apply for visitation in court.
