ANSWER:

It would depend upon the situation, and a complete and full investigation of the Court.

One example would be if a parent of a child is dying, and the child has no close living relatives. Then any of the 50 states would take the matter under consideration.

The child may or may not be awarded to the friend. But, to just say, "no," is incorrect.

How do you change who has custody if there never was a court order?

You would need to petition the court in the county of jurisdiction (where the child legally resides) for a custody order. Once one is established, the parents would have to fight it out in court for any modifications including removing custody of the parent who currently has physical and presumed (thus legal) custody. The judge will ultimately rule what he or she feels is in the best interests of the child and that may include leaving the current custody intact while outlining visitation/support obligations for the non-custodial parent, rule for joint custody, or transfer custody to the other parent.
