How can a father get custody of his 16-year old daughter that does not want to live with her mother because of abuse?

If you simply take the child, you'll likely be charged with kidnapping. Your best bet would probably be to take her to court for custody on the grounds that she is an unfit mother. The wisest course would be to seek the advice of a qualified attorney.

∙ 7y agothe first step is to go through children's service and obtain a caseworker- that caseworker can then file a motion with the court for temporary custody because the mother is unfit through the neglect law.Temporary custody can last up to years if never reviewed before the court.I would suggest a drug test for you both plus the bio-mother because test do not hide the facts. * File a report with the state's division of child protective services. They will investigate the matter and if warranted will remove the child from the home and refer the case to family or domestic court. Or file a writ of habeas corpus for custodial rights in the state court in the county where the child resides, either Pro Se or by use of legal representation. FYI, if the term "we" refers to a new spouse it should be noted that the new spouse has not legal rights to the child or children and may or may not be allowed to testify to the alledged abuse.

∙ 14y agofile a divorce paper and go to court and try to win the daughter back. Tell the judge about everything and then let the daughter come in and report it. also tell the mother how her daughter feels and do not under any circumstances leave the child with the mother home alone. I mean it if u do that one time then your daughter will probably not be alive the next time u see her. By the way I'm 11 and know very much about this stuff.

You have joint custody with your ten year old daughter father moved to Kansas you live in CA and want to move to OR and he doesn't allow it?
If you have Joint Legal Custody, then neither parent can physically change residences without the approval of the other. If, per the question, the daughter is living with the father, or the father has "primary" custody, then you can move wherever "you" want, at least in my perception.
If a mother with a child enters rehab to fix her problems can the father get full custody where they already have joint custody?
It really depends. I think that the mother and father should have full custody. I say this because the mother is doing this to get better, for the benefit of her kids. Some might argue that she should not have custody because why would she had to go to rehab in the first place. It really depends. I think that the mother and father should have full custody.

If you have joint legal custody then you will need the father to sign paperwork to get a passport for your daughter to leave the country. If she already has a passport and your trip out of the country does not interfere with his visitation then you have every right to take you daughter anywhere you want to take her:-)
