In Arkansas custody is assigned to an unmarried mother unless there is reason to give custody to another person. A father may get custody if he is determined to be a fit parent and he is able to show the court that it's in the child's best interest to remove the child from the mother's custody and award custody to him. He would need to show some degree of unfitness on the mother's part that would compel the court to make the change.

How does a mother lose her child in a custody battle?
If she is found to be unfit or addicted to drugs she could lose custody. Additionally, if she refuses to give the father visitation the judge could find her in contempt and change custody to the father.

The time frame should have been stated by the judge when custody was awarded.
Ex-boyfriend lied to a judge and the judge gave him temporary custody?
I assume that the "ex-boyfriend" is also the father of the child. If you believe that he lied to gain custody, you can file a motion/petition for a custody re-hearing and be prepared to demonstrate that he lied, and that you are a 'fit' mother to have custody of the child.
How does a mother give custody of a child to father if they were never married?
The best, easiest, and safest way to do this would be to get a lawyer(one that knows custody cases), have them draw up the papers, you and the father both sign them, and the lawyer will file them and get the judge to sign them. Should take no more than 6 to 8 months at the most.
Can a father get joint custody of a child from a woman he wasnt married to when she doesnt even want visitation?
Yes and the choice of visitation is not up to her, it's up to the judge. If he is the biological father and have proved paternity in court, he can petition for custody, visitation and pay child support. She has no legal right to keep the other parent away from the child.
What if you had full physical custody of your child and then the father files for custody due to child being overweight?
If at the custody hearing, the judge believes that you are the cause of the child's overweight problem, the father could very well win full custody. If you can afford it, hire a lawyer to argue for your side.
