Since this would come under the law as regards parental abduction, blackmail is not even an issue. Besides, you don't have that power, the court does.
No, and no can he, so there must be a greater issue related here as to the safety of the children. As for being in arrears, in this economy that comes as no shock as men do not know there is free legal help to avoid or reduce arrears from the government. That is what I teach them.
Only if the court mandates it. It would be a good idea.
This could be considered interference and abusive, but the issue will need to be raised with the courts.
Does he have them 51% of the time? Regardless of any custody agreement, or court order the IRS has it's own definition of who the custodial parent is. Section 152(e)(4) defines custodial parent as the parent having custody for the greater portion of the calendar year and noncustodial parent as the parent who is not the custodial parent. If you feel that the mother may challenge this, or attempt to claim the child as well you can also double cover your back by having the Mom fill out form 8332, which basically says "I am the custodial parent of this child, and I am giving up my rights to claim the child this year. It can be found at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8332.pdf The IRS rule is that if you have the child for more than half of the year, and they literally mean 183 days, you are the custodial parent.
It's up to a judge, but most likely he would just order regular reviews.
As long as the NCP - and CP for that matter - abides by the court order, and provides phone access, then the other parent doesn't need the address of every place the child will be visiting. The permanent residence, however, needs to be known.
No, a non custodial parent can not take a child out of state without the custodial parents permission. The non custodial parent could be charged with kidnapping if charges are brought against them.
Nothing. Not very helpful or necessarily true.
Whether or not the noncustodial parent has the right to take custody of the minor children if the custodial parent is incarcerated depends on the specific circumstances and any existing court order or custody agreement. In general, it is recommended for the noncustodial parent to consult with a family law attorney and go through the appropriate legal channels to modify or establish custody arrangements during the custodial parent's incarceration.
Yes, unless there are other arrangements mentioned in the visitation order. The non-custodial parent shouldn't expect the custodial parent to do the transporting. Taking your own parental responsibilities seriously is character building.
Report that person to Children and Family services and look for legal help to modify your custody agreement and get the non-custodial parent help or in parentingclasses.
If it is really that bad I would get a call into the department of social services or family services and report the parent. You need an lawyer to make sure the kids aren't going there. Get the ball rolling tomorrow.
Parents blackmail their children all the time. Often it is only the way a parent can get their children to do something (homework, clean their bedroom, etc.).
Maybe, if the absent parent does not share custody in any manner and there is not a visitation order in place, a custodial parent can take whatever action he or she chooses in regards to a minor child. However, courts do not look favorably upon any parent who does not allow the other parent to have a relationship with his or her minor child/children unless there is substantiated reasons (child abuse, endangerment, etc.) for the action. A parent who is being denied access to his or her child/children can file suit for visitation and/or custodial rights if they so choose.
no
Barring any changes in Child Support law, there is no Statute of Limitations on arrears. This means that the noncustodial parent will never be free of accumulated arrears plus interest accrued until the full amount has been paid either to the custodial parent or the custodial parent's estate, if they have died.
Non-custodial is a term used when referring to parents who have children that are no longer a couple or married. The non-custodial parent is the one who has the children in their household the least.
