Do grandparents have visitation rights in Minnesota and how do we get them?

The grandparents should consult with an attorney. The factors considered in Minnesota for grandparent visitation rights include determination of whether one of the child's parents is deceased, or a parent has had his or her parental rights terminated. The court must also consider the relationship between the grandparent and grandchild. Adoption cuts off the visitation rights of grandparents unless the adoption is granted to a stepparent or a blood relative.See related link.The grandparents should consult with an attorney.

Can a non custodial parent that has been absent for 6 years have the right to sign school contracts even though they have joint custody?

As a parent with joint custody, the school will allow them to sign anything related to their own child. If they have been absent from the child's life, contact your lawyer to make the necessary changes to your custody order.


Who will get full custody of your child you or the father?

Most often the mother gets physical custody but the court can award joint legal custody if the parents get along well and have the best interest of the child as their mutual priority. If the father wants physical custody, generally, he will need to show that the mother is unfit and the child would be better off with him. In that case the court must be provided with evidence of the mother's unfitness and each jurisdiction has its own criteria. See the related question.
