Can a father win custody if he is behind in child support?

Answer 1

it all depends on state that you live in, however, a father has a right to see his children despite his history of child support payments. the mother cannot legally refuse to allow the father to the child or children due to lack of support, unless there is a court order or restraining order that legally allows her to withold visitation. Paying child support and visitation rights have nothing to do with each other.Just because you dont/do pay child support doesnt mean you can/cannot visit your child

Answer 2

Yes. Custody and Child Support are considered two different things. However, you must provide proof of why it is more beneficial for the non-custodial parent to be denied rights to the child. If there is no history of your claims, it is likely to be dismissed. Most states are in favor of the child spending time with both parents as it is much more beneficial to the child.

Though a Judge does not favor you, they are separate issues, though he might issue an arrest warrant for you on the spot. Why are you behind?
