Legally speaking, he has exactly the same rights as any other father, unless they have been specifically taken away by a court.

A bit more:

Being unfaithful has no bearing on whether or not the father is allowed to see his children, nor would it deem him an unfit father. As for the abuse though, that is a different issue. If you feel you are in danger from your husband, you need to petition the courts for a restraining order against him until a judge can determine the facts and rule accordingly.

In the meantime though, you need to use all precautions in keeping you and your baby safe from your husband. And, while a restraining order is recommended and does have its purpose, it won't prevent him from trying to harm you if he really wants to.

You also need to document all abusive incidents, being sure to take photographs of any bruises, cuts, etc. that he inflicts upon you, as well as dates and any witnesses to the abuse for each abusive incident or angry outburst.

It would also be helpful to have photographs of property damage incurred during a physical outburst, such as broken household items, busted walls, etc. All of these will show a pattern of behavior and, while it won't guarantee the judgment you want, it certainly won't hurt to have proof of his actions.

None of the above is a guarantee that the judge will rule the way you want, but it's certainly better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
