Should that prevent him from getting custody if the child safety is in jeopardy? There are many causes for arrears unrelated to refusing to pay, so yes.

If you are not the child's parent, you do not have priority in a custody dispute with a biological parent. If the custodial parent is unfit and this is proven by CPS, the child can be awarded to another family member. But since you are not related to the child and are not his parent, you don't have any rights.
