If two parents are in a custody battle and the primary parent has a warrant for her arrest will the judge grant custody to the father if he is a fit parent?

If the caretaking parent is incarcerated as a result of her arrest and the court is called upon to place the child in a replacement home, then the court will certainly prefer to place the child with a fit-to-parent father rather than to place the child in a foster environment. However, if the arrest of the mother does not result in her incarceration (e.g. if she is released on her own recognizance, is released as a result of posting bail, or is released under some agency's supervision), then a court is not likely to take her child away simply because she is accused of some crime, especially if the nature of crime of which she is accused does not suggest that strongly.

Something as minor as a traffic violation means they won't come looking for you if that's what you're wondering.
