It can, yes. If the new spouse is able to provide a better standard of living for the child in terms of a more stable environment and will financially provide for the child, the judge may feel it is in the child's best interests to live with that parent and their new spouse. Of course, if there are any skeletons in the new spouse's closet, you can bet they will be brought forth in the hearing, so sometimes marriage can work against you.

If not sole custody, then joint legal and physical custody.You should consult with an attorneywho specializes in custody issues. The attorney can review your situation and explain your rights and options.
