You can go to court to reverse the decision of the court based on an another parent's arrest.
You file a motion in the appropriate venue. FYI, the law generally awards custody to the parent(s) or, failing that, grandparent(s) or other suitable member of the extended family.
A paternal grandmother with permanent custody of her grandchild is considered a family member rather than a parent. While she may have assumed the role of a parent by providing care and custody, her legal status is that of a grandparent.
No, the fathers rights comes first as a custodial parent.
It is not an automatic switch. However, the non custodial parent may file to take custody. If this is not an option another family member may step up.
Not necessarily, a family member or relative, friend, neighbor, parent of a friend, etc., can petition for guardianship.

If you are not the child's parent, you do not have priority in a custody dispute with a biological parent. If the custodial parent is unfit and this is proven by CPS, the child can be awarded to another family member. But since you are not related to the child and are not his parent, you don't have any rights.
Not sure what you're trying to ask. However, typically when a parent who has main custody goes to jail, the other parent will take the child in, or even a family member.
Yes they can unless the other parent can take the child, but it has to go through the court.

some have done it, but it's not recommended. see links below ADDED: The questioner does not make clear if they are the parent, or the minor, that is asking the question. If you are the parent - see the above answer - if you are the minor - no, you cannot.
Yes. But the abandoned child's caregiver can ask the Family Court to consider the child's emotional safety and give them custody of the minor.
