If neither of the child's parents are able or willing to care for the child in a safe, loving environment, the grandmother can petition the court for custody of the child. You will need to retain an attorney, and you will also have to provide proof that the parent(s) are not either willing or able to care and provide for the child. You can also petition for the court to award child support to be paid to you by one or both parents if you do become the legal guardian of the child, as well as requesting that they maintain medical insurance on the child.
I would contact a local attorney and explain your situation. In some cases, you may be able to sue the biological father for non-support. Just remember, if he didn't have the money to pay child support, more than likely it will just be a moral victory. However, if the father has a business, home, or other assets, you may be able to have a lien placed against the bio father. My advice for you is to keep accurate records and when the child turns 18, have the child petition the court to have the child support paid to them. There is no statute of limitations on child support payments and states have agreements to cooperate in finding and collecting support. Good luck, BW

I assume you are unmarried. Generally in the United States, an unmarried mother has sole legal custody of her child automatically. An unmarried father must establish his paternity legally in court in order to gain parental rights. Once established he can petition for custody and/or a visitation schedule. If the mother consents to the father having legal custody the procedure will go more quickly and smoothly. He should request a consent and court approval to move the child out of state at the same time.If you do as planned, you do not have legal custody of your child and you will encounter legal problems. You may not be able to register the child in school or obtain medical treatment without proof of legal custody. There is always the possibility that the child's mother will change her mind and accuse you of kidnapping.You should visit the family court and ask to speak with an advocate who can advise you what you need to file. It would be better if you could consult with a private attorney who specializes in family law and custody issues in your area.
You can file a claim with the state department's Office of Child Support Services. You can google "Office of Child Support Services" and the name of the state in which you live, and you should be able to find the site. It will be a .gov site. Also, if the father of the child happens to be a U.S. Citizen, then I'm fairly sure that he needs a social security number in order to pay his taxes.
The court can do nothing until they are able to contact her.
You don't. The child's death should be reported to the court accompanied by a certified death certificate. The court should be able to assist you in petitioning to terminate the child support order.

In Montana, a child must be 18 years old to be able to move out. However, if a child wants to move out before the age of 18, they can become emancipated, which requires filing a petition in family court. To do that, it is best for the child to meet with a family lawyer who knows what to do.
