No, but the non-custodial parent has a pretty good case for getting custody in court.

What if custodial parent leaves child with grandparent?
The non-custodial parent can file for custody.
If the child leaves the custodial parents home does the noncustodial parent still pay the custodial parent support?
Yes, until the court order is modified.
What happens when custodial parent drops kids off at non custodial parents house and leaves them?
Leaves them permanently or in violation of court ordered custody/visitation time? In either circumstances, the non-custodial parent may file an action for contempt of court against the custodial parent and/or file for custody/visitation modification based on the same.
If a child leaves their home to live with the noncustodial parent is the custodial parent responsible for child support payments?
No, the parent whom the child began residing would need to file for custody and also support before the original custodial parent would be obligated. However there would be no guarantee that a court would grant the motion.
Can a custodial parent get in trouble if that parent leaves the country for vacation and leaves minor child with step dad?
It depends on the exact language in the custody decree, but ordinarily a custodial parent is allowed to place a minor child in the temporary care of any responsible adult.
What happens if custodial parent leaves when court has denied the move?
Then the custodial parent can be charged with kidnapping and she/he can lose custody. You should notify the court immediately and request an injunction if you think the custodial parent is planning to defy the court order. The court will advise you of any further action you need to take. You should also be advised that there is a Uniform Child Custody Act in the United States. Every state recognizes, and will enforce, custody orders from other states.
In the State of Texas how can a 15-year-old move in with the non custodial parent if the custodial parent refuses the request?
The parent who holds the custodial order is the parent who has the legal right to control all the actions of the child in question. The non custodial parent would need to petition the court in which the original order was made to have custody rights changed or amended so the 15-year-old could legally reside with them. If the minor leaves the home of the custodial parent without permission, said parent has the legal authority by means of the custody order to have the minor child taken into custody and returned to the family residence.
If a custodial parent moves out of state for more than 30 days and leaves her 16 year old to fend for himself does the noncustodial parent have to continue to pay child support?
Yes. A different view: If the custodial moves out of state and abandons a minor, then the custodial parent should be charged with endangering a minor, child abuse and neglect. Then the non-custodial parent should be given full custody of the minor child, and should then sue the parent who abandoned child for child support. There is never any reason or excuse for a parent to abandon a minor child, and leave them to "fend for himself". That is child abuse, child endangerment and neglect.
The custodial parent leaves the child for long periods of time with the non custodial parent making only very short infrequent visits. What can the non-custodial parent do?
The non-custodial parent should file for a modification of the custody order to become the custodial parent. If they have physical custody most of the time they also need to have legal authority over the child. They should visit the family court with jurisdiction over the case and ask to speak to an advocate. Or, they should consult with an attorney.The non-custodial parent should file for a modification of the custody order to become the custodial parent.
