Only if the mother can prove repeatedly that the father is not responsible.
Our custody case is in FL and our lawyer told us that when my husband deploys with the military that his children can remain in our home and do not have to relocate to the mother's home for the 6 months he will not be there.
A father can get custody of the children if it can be demonstrated that that is in the best interest of the child. The father being the primary caregiver would help.
Assuming you are an adult, yes you have a chance.
No. The biological father have rights. Unless the court find him unfit to have custody then there might be a chance.
That depends on the custody order, but she can file for a change of custody.
a very big chance
Yes
If father was awarded custody before and his circumstances have not changed, unless the mother's situation has improved dramatically the father has a good chance of maintaining custody.
Yes, a father can change his child's last name. However, this depends on the custody arrangement, and who has primary custody.
My answer to that would be 'No'. The father is responsible for providing child-support regardless of who has custody of the child; at least until the age of 18.
It's easier with the mother's cooperation of course, but the father is free to file a motion for such in the court with jurisdiction over the case. His request will be taken under advisement, but ultimately, the judge will rule in favor of what he or she feels would be in the best interests of the child.
Yes if she could prove that the child is better off in her primary care. If the child is thriving and safe with you, it would be hard for her to prove. But custody can change at anytime so she has the right to file.
O9nly if he has primary custody, or family is intact.
