In Colorado can a parent take children from a home?
This depends on the circumstances and the home where the children reside. If they are in foster care, than no. If the other parent has custody, than no. If the other parent if a single mother, and custody has not been established, than no.
How long can a 17 year old stay home alone without the parent home in the state of MN?

What should a parent who is seeking full custody be prepared for in a custody hearing?
A parent who is seeking full custody should be prepared to be questioned about every aspect of their lives. A person seeking custody will have to prove that they are a fit parent, have a steady income, a decent home, and can care for the child. They may also have to prove that the other parent is unfit.
If One parent has full custody but child wants to live with noncustodial parent?
They recently changed the laws of custody, No one parent has full custody UNLESS they see the other parent as unstable and unfit. If the parent you want to live with has been deemed unfit as a parent then it will have to be taken to court or you can contact certain child organizations to give you more details about how to leave your current home and return to the home of an "unfit parent" However if one parent obtained full custody of the child and the other parent was not deemed unfit as a parent, you may still live with them because of the recent change in custody laws, stating no one parent can have full or primary custody. (in other words, if your mom has full custody and your dad has none ((Also assuming the father hasn't been charged with being a drug addict, alcoholic, or financially unstable etc.)) you may live with the father)
Can a parent get custody of a child when that parent leaves the home and the child?

If two unmarried people have a a kid together and custody was never established and one parent dies does the surviving parent get custody automatically in ny state?
I will assume this is not a small goat, but a child. The nature of the question does make one wonder though. Custody was established at some point, unless the child moved from home to home in which case, neither parent should have had custody. The child lived somewhere, and that established a default home for the child. You should inform the court of your parental status and your desire to have custody of the child.
If a 12-year-old goes to the other home without the consent of on of her parents when they have joint custody will that be classified as a runaway?
It depends on the specific custody agreement in place and the laws in the relevant jurisdiction. In some cases, leaving one parent's home without permission could be considered running away if it violates the custody agreement or court orders. It's best to consult with a legal professional for guidance in this situation.
Can you move in with your mother in California if she doesn't have any custody of you and tell the court that you want to move in with her because you don't get along with your step-parent?
A minor cannot leave the home of the custodial parent without that parent's permission. The noncustodial parent can petition the court for custody rights pertaining to the minor child. Depending on the child's age the court will take into consideration the opinion/feelings of the child before rendering a decision.
In the State of Texas how can a 15-year-old move in with the non custodial parent if the custodial parent refuses the request?
The parent who holds the custodial order is the parent who has the legal right to control all the actions of the child in question. The non custodial parent would need to petition the court in which the original order was made to have custody rights changed or amended so the 15-year-old could legally reside with them. If the minor leaves the home of the custodial parent without permission, said parent has the legal authority by means of the custody order to have the minor child taken into custody and returned to the family residence.
If you keep the parental home do you have more rights to keep the child?
no. a home is a home is a home. they will try to do what's in the best interest of the child that's why there can be joint custody if both parents are stable then they will both have the same advantage.Unfortunately, this is not how it works in the real world. From 20 years experience, if the parent in possession of the home, and the children, at the time of filing for temporary custody, will most often get primary or residential custody. As it can take months to get a final hearing, the judge will usually nor wish to change what the children have come to consider their home. This is why the other parent should not leave the home, even when told to, without a court order.
