He absolutely cannot. The mother can call the police and they can take the child back. Most likely will he loose visitation rights if he does this or it will be supervised or in the mothers home.

If an infants' father is on drugs how can you get him supervised visitation?

The mother must bring the father's drug use to the attention of the court in order to have him deemed an unfit parent or to curtail his visitation rights so the child is not endangered while in her father's care. The court can stop visits or require supervised visits.


If the father of a child gets married and owes back child support can the spouse be obligated to pay his back child support in CA?

An unmarried father cannot "choose" to not pay child support. The laws in every state require that a father pay for the support of his child. The mother must bring an action to the appropriate court so that a child support order can be established. Visitation rights are separate and a father can have visitation rights established by the court. Visitation rights are not dependent on paying child support.


How do you file for custody if there has been no court order and the mother did not bring the child back after visitation in the State of Texas?

If you are not married and there is no custody or visitation order, she has custody automatically. The father have to prove paternity in court by a DNA test and then petition for custody or visitation. He can then also pay child support.

No. There are no provisions in the laws of Georgia that provide step-parents with visitation rights. A step-parent has no legal standing. They would need to bring suit and take their chances with a judge.


What if the mother has been under cps and lost her custody battle but has visitation rights can you refuse those rights because of child endangerment?

Only with a court order. If you feel the mother would present a danger to the child during visitation, you must file for a modification to visitation based on the same and wait for the judge to rule on it. If time is an issue, you can file for an emergency order. Otherwise, if you refuse the mother access to her child as outlined in the original visitation order, you risk being found in contempt of court and that can bring fines and/or jail time.


Can my daughter bring my grandson and visit me in Florida if she is not married to the father when he is strongly objecting and threatening recourse?

Too much information is lacking. Does the father have visitation rights in a custody case? Did she petition the court for permission to remove their son from their state of residence, thereby depriving the father of his legal right to visit his son? What is meant by "visiting?" For how long is the "visit' projected to last? Is she "visiting" with the intention of taking up residence with you? When those questions are addressed a more comprehensive answer can be given. Regarding the above - if a custody and visitation order is in place and she is removing their son from her state of residence in violation of it, the father may, in fact, have recourse through the courts.


You are 15 and live in MD with your mom and stepfather but you want to live with your real dad who lives in tn He has visitation rights but your mom forbade you from talkin to him anything to do?

Under normal circumstances you have the right to visit with your father and speak with him on the phone as long as his visitation rights are in effect. Your mother is in contempt of a court order if your father has visitation rights and she refuses to allow you to have any contact with him or him with you. Your father should bring a complaint for contempt in the court where the divorce was filed. However, if he can't or won't perhaps you could visit the court and ask if they have an advocate or social worker that you can speak with. You should explain your situation and provide them with contact information for your father. If you want to live with your father, he would need to file a complaint to have the court order amended to grant him custody of you. There would be a hearing where the court would probably allow you to testify. Your father would need to hire an attorney to represent him and he would need to be present at the hearing. The judge would hear all the testimony and make a decision based on the evidence. It is an expensive and time consuming process and the outcome may not be what you desire. First, you should visit the court as suggested above and try to speak with an advocate who can help you to re-establish your ability to contact your father.


How can you obtain child support if they don't know if they're the father?

You need to bring a court action to establish paternity legally. Once you have supplied the information about the father to the court, it can order the proposed father to submit to a DNA test. Once paternity is established you can request a child support order and the court will set the amount according to state child support guidelines. The father can request joint custody and/or a visitation schedule.You need to bring a court action to establish paternity legally.

Can a mother bring his to child to other country without the consent of the father in which the father name is not mention in the child birth certificate?

Depends. Even if he is not on the birth certificate he can still have a court ordered visitation and pay child support. In that case she needs both his and the courts permission.


If you died would your son be taken away from his step father and step brother and returned to his biological father seeing as legally he is not my husband's baby or does marriage bring rights?

Marriage by itself does not bring custody rights to non-biological children. Where the children go when the biological mother dies depends on who has custody, whether the non-biological father has adopted the child, whether the biological father wants the child, and on the laws of the state where all of this is happening.
