If the felon cannot see their child due to incarceration, that would not be grounds for an abandonment charge as it is a situation beyond their control. If other circumstances apply, you may file a motion in the court with jurisdiction for a finding of abandonment on the part of the father if he has willfully had no contact with the child for 6 months or more.

You can contact DCFS to determine YOUR rights such as child support from the father. However, in most states you will find that the law offers the biological father of the child certain legal benefits and the right to a 'relationship' with his child.

Can a mother file for abandonment if she will not let the children go with the father?

It would be cruel to file abandonment charges against the father simply because he had no way of picking the child up. Arrangements could have been made. It is time both parents thought of the child and not themselves. If the father tried his best then accept it; if he is a dead beat father and the mother cannot rely on the father then file abandonment charges.


Is it still abondoment if child's father pays child support but has had no contact for 2 years?

That would depend on the laws of your State.Generally, the crime of child abandonment occurs when the parent who is charged with the custody and care of the child leaves the child with the intent of abandoning it. Therefore a father who is paying child support is the non-custodial parent and cannot be charged with child abandonment. You can check your state laws at the related link.
