Hell yes! I had a record when I was 18 - I'm now 74 and have been raising children ever since. Having a record doesn't make you unqualified to raise children.
That is dependent on the circumstances.
If they are legally married, the father gets rights until mother gets out of prison, after that it is up to the state. If not legally married, they go into state custody.
I get the feeling either this father is in prison or is not safe to be alone with your child. If you have sole custody of your child then you can move anywhere without the father's permission as long as it's not stated in the custody order that the father has that one hour visitation right twice per month. However, if it's working out where the father and child have a bond, then it's best to see a lawyer and try to work something out.
If the father goes to prison his responsibility for child support does not stop. For all practical purposes, he will have no income and will not be able to pay you one cent. Do not expect to get any money out of him while his is in prison.
It is a big deal because max's father is in prison
his mother had died and his father is in prison
Yes, if the father is not given custody he will be obligated to keep paying support to whomever the court awards custody or guardianship of the children.
If you are a father. You must prove the mother unfit, drugs, abuse, prison record, etc... IF you are a mother, depending on the state you live in they would allow soul custody because you are the mother. If the father is unfit and you live in Utah and/or California where they are for the father as well and want to do joint custody in most of those two states, the father must pretty much be unfit such as abuse, drugs and/or prison record for the mother to get full custody. That is pretty much when the only time I have known any parent to get full custody of their children.
If they are legally married, the father gets rights until mother gets out of prison, after that it is up to the state. If not legally married, they go into state custody.
yes
It depends on the state the father lives in, the custody laws of that state would determine if he had a real, legal reason for taking the children for her. Another condition would be WHY she was incarcerated. He would need to see a family lawyer who practices family law in his state.
Not usually unless he is proven to have abused the children. He may or may not get joint custody it just depends, and almost always father or mother have visitation rights.
Custody of relatives, an orphanage, or a work house
If he is is currently in prison, then OBVIOUSLY he does not have custody of her. Notify the court immediately, and file an Emergency Motion For Modification of Child Custody, so that her custody can lawfully changed to you, or another adult of the court's choosing, who CAN assume full-time responsibility for her.
NO. in court you have to make an oath to be telling the truth and nothing but the truth. to be lying could get you sent to prison
File a motion while in possession, real easy. see links
For apparently selling state secrets.
No. Of course not. There's no way he can take your son away. Only a court can do that and a court is not likely to grant custody to an incarcerated father. Ignore him and find your backbone.
