What is sole custody?
This entrusts the legal and physical custody of the child in only one of the parents. The parent granted Sole Custody makes all major decisions for the child without having to consult the non-custodial parent. Sole Custody is generally used in cases where the parties are unable to cooperate in making decisions for the child or in those cases where one parent is absent from the child's life.
An agreement for father to get kids on Friday evenings was put in divorce decree but father picks children up on Saturday and not Friday What can you do?
You can reopen your final custody agreement in court as the other parent is not following the schedule. If there is a valid reason why he is unable to pick them up on Friday, then you may need to modify the agreement to show this as the amount of time the non-custodial parent spends with their children can affect child support.
Cna a grandparent receive custody of grandchildren in mo?
Yes, you can but only if the court determines each parent unfit, unsuitable or unable to be a custodian and custody by you is in the best interests of the children. The court will examine your ability to provide a stable and nurturing environment. If the children are adopted though that would lead to that you do not have the right to petition for custody.
Can a judge legally reverse full physical custody from mother to father if mother is unable to move to area judge orders?
Absolutely. A judge has the power to make any changes or modifications to custody at any time. However, the parent does have the right to appeal those decisions but has a very short window of time in which to do it. In addition, unless they can present a compelling and valid case why the judge erred in making the original order, their appeal may be denied.
Does the custodial parent need to give non-custodial parent a letter of permission when non-custodial parent is taking child out of state for a extended period of time?
IT is a good idea assuming the custodial parent has sole custody or sole legal custody of the child. Otherwise, most states will administer medical care to a child with either parent present and will administer life saving measures without anyone present though they would be unable to continue treatment beyond emergency stabilization without a parent or guardian consent
Can you get full custody if sole parent has two warrants for arrest?
No you may not. Most likely the state will place a child with next of kin, if the other parent is unable as well. But depending on what the warrants are for, after you serve your time. You will most likely get the child back. Hope this helps.
