If the children live with their mother in Florida and the father never established his paternity legally, a Georgia court would have no jurisdiction over the children. Their mother has sole legal custody. If the father wants to establish his "parental rights" he will need to establish his paternity where the children are domiciled. Once he has established that he is their father he can request joint custody or a visitation order and the mother can request a child support order if the children are to remain in her physical custody.If the parties want to make the change in custody by consent of the parties he should consult with an attorney to determine how that can be accomplished.If the children live with their mother in Florida and the father never established his paternity legally, a Georgia court would have no jurisdiction over the children.

If the mother and father are talking to each other it should go this way.... Father goes to court and files a custody petition. Mom does not oppose the petition and custody is granted to the father. Visitation can be undeclared "at times that are mutually agreeable to all parties." Or visitation can be set in a court order.
That is dependent on agreement, state law, their differences in income, the needs of the parties and other factors.
the father gets the custody of the child if the mother dies
That depends on the custody order, but she can file for a change of custody.
Yes, a mother can fight for custody. Unfortunately, the courts are going to tell you no, if you can't prove the change in custody is beneficial to the child's well being.There were reasons why the father was granted custody in the first place. Generally, there must be a change in circumstances in order to take the case back to court. If nothing has changed there is no reason for the court to spend time going over the same case again. Perhaps the mother can prove to the court that the factors leading the court to award custody to the father have been addressed. Perhaps the child is better off with the father. The mother needs to convince the court that a change in custody is in the best interest of the child and not the mother's interest.
If the decision was recently made, the mother can file an appeal. Otherwise, the mother will have to prove there has been a significant/material change in circumstances - to the judge.
Can a father in wi. get temporary full custody if mother is homeless?
No, but the father can get the custody if he proves that the mother has bad habits like alcoholic or consume drugs.
If she is found to be unfit or addicted to drugs she could lose custody. Additionally, if she refuses to give the father visitation the judge could find her in contempt and change custody to the father.
How often is the father awarded custody of the child over the mother in North Carolina?
No. Your parents must come to an agreement and change the custody order filed in the family court.
