Only the courts can determine custody of a child, and custody can only be transferred after the child is born. At that time, the grandmother would be able to file for guardianship, not custody, as she is not the mother of the child. The mother would be allowed to testify if she was opposed to the action, and the court would make the final determination.

What does my son do if his girlfriend got arrested and they have a baby he is on a 24-hour home pass and wants to pick up his baby from grandma?
Assuming the mother had custody, and parental rights, when she was arrested. She made the decision to turn over custody to her mother (grandma), who is now the temporary caregiver. In the eyes of the court, the grandma is the "guardian" of the child, and there is little you can do about it. Considering you are both a teenager and in a group home, a judge is not going to turn over parental rights to you. The judge's concern will be the best interest of the child, and the fact that the caregiver, at the time, turned over parental responsibility to a trusted guardian. In both concerns, the judge is going to choose the grandmother.

Can custody of a child be stated in a will?
If you live in the US... Children are not property and therefore cannot be 'willed'. You can state in your will who you would like to receive custody, but the court is not required to abide by it. For example, if Mom has custody of a child, she dies and her will states that she wants her sister to receive custody, but Dad wants custody...Dad gets custody, unless he can be proved unfit, because Dad has first legal right to custody (Mom's wishes don't change that).
