If neither parent has a custody order what can be done if the non-custodial parent steals the children?

If there is no court order petaining to custody rights, either parent can take any action they choose in regards to the children. This obviously does not include anything that could place the children in physical danger or emotional distress. The court does not look favorably upon one parent who keeps the other from having contact with the children. The exception would be if the parent has been proven unfit in the guidelines set by state laws.


If you have temporary sole custody of your children can you and your children move in with your boyfriend while the case to decide permanent custody is pending?

Can a custodial parent prevent the noncustodial parent from talking to their children on the phone?

Maybe, if the absent parent does not share custody in any manner and there is not a visitation order in place, a custodial parent can take whatever action he or she chooses in regards to a minor child. However, courts do not look favorably upon any parent who does not allow the other parent to have a relationship with his or her minor child/children unless there is substantiated reasons (child abuse, endangerment, etc.) for the action. A parent who is being denied access to his or her child/children can file suit for visitation and/or custodial rights if they so choose.

My husband will not let me see our kids we don't have custody in place when i went to see them he said he would get me for trespassing i havnt seen them in months what can i do?
