Custody

It is possible, yes. It is unlikely, however.

Most states use "the best interest of the child" standard to determine custody and visitation. The court would have to determine that the child would be better off with the father than with the mother, looking at each's circumstances and track records. The fact that the father has a criminal record does not automatically exclude him, but it will probably be taken as a sign of his bad character.

Of course, the date the offense was committed and the type of offense will make a huge difference here.

You need to consult with an attorney who can determine your rights under the law in your jurisdiction and assist you in obtaining visitation rights. The court would appoint a guardian ad litem to assess the situation and help the court determine if visitations with you would be in the best interest of the child.

Yes: by signing an acknowledgment of paternity; by having been married to the mother of the child when the child was conceived or born; by failing to appear for an appointment with the child support agency, a court date or paternity test.

From your question this is from my experience.

I am a mom and I moved out of state from the non custodial parent.

For my own reasons and safety.

Child Support does continue. you will pay it to the Child Support enforcement how ever you are paying it now. And it will be sent to the custodial parent as normal.

Visitations you will have to speak to the custodial parent about this. You both can pay for expenses to see the child splitting the costs of plane tickets or gas to get the child to you, if not too far away from each other.

Or you pay the fare one time for the plane trip and then another time the custodial parent pays for the fare etc.

You will have to figure out what holidays and days off from school so that you can do your visitations for more then a couple of days and such so that way this is not too hard on the children.

Like Christmas and Thanksgiving, Easter Week and/or Spring Breaks and Winter Breaks depending on the states and Summer Vacations.

IF for some reason that the custodial parent does not want to do this with you or will not speak to you on this. Child Support will not help you with this. You must return to court and you must fight for the right to have visits with your children. But keep in mind in most states, after 6 months the children are now residents of the state, and you will have to do this in the child's resident state, usually. It is best to get an attorney in your state and find out the laws of your state, but most children once they reside for 6 months in a state with the custodial parent they are residents of the state after then and all court hearings must take place in the state the children are living in.

and residents of.

Where it is about the children and such and even though it is for your state and your rights, it is still this way.

The answer depends on the details. It depends on the reason for the guardianship. If the child was removed from the parent's custody and placed with a guardian the parent may or may not be able to regain custody. If the parent's parental rights were terminated they cannot get legal custody of the child back. If the parent consented to a temporary guardianship and the parent is now better able to care for the child the guardianship can be terminated and custody restored to the parent. It would not be necessary for the parent to adopt the child.

Preparation

Keeping a daily journal of activities which can be use during testimony.

Creating A Chronological Statement, or history of the relationship with the other parent and children. Don't lie!!

Interviewing several attorneys and picking the right one for you, and not just on the recommendation of someone else. Even a young attorney can be successful against an experienced attorney.

Generally the child cannot make that decision until they reach eighteen years of age unless the parents can agree to the change.

No, it is not illegal. But it strongly unrecommended.

In most states, the courts will not allow you to "sign over your rights" unless it is for the purpose of adoption and another person has agreed to become financially responsible for the child. If someone is adopting the child, signing a consent for the adoption will end all obligations but will not wipe out any child support arrearage.

Age 18

You can visit the court in person and ask to speak with an advocate. You can file a petition for a court ordered DNA test. The court will assist you and the mother cannot refuse or she will be in contempt of a court order. You should act immediately.

Yes, but first the father must establish paternity and then petition the court for those rights if he is not on the birth certificate. The court will also require the father to pay child support and probably furnish adequate medical coverage, depending on the situation.

No, only parents or grandparents are mentioned in the custody rights laws of the different states and not always grandparents either. It's up to the court when you apply for custody.

Yes, both parents do.

No, A god mother does not have legal rights to a child. A god mother is a honorary position given to someone.

No. Only biological parents or persons who have legally adopted a minor child are responsible for their financial support.

However, if the grandparents's child is a minor and a father, they can be court ordered to pay child support in his name until he is old enough to get a job and pay himself.

In some states a petition can be filed by the primary custodian to amend the current custodial order.

The usual procedure is to file a new custody suit/petition in the appropriate state court in the county where the petitioner resides.

Judges are very reluctant to grant sole custody to one parent.

It is generally granted only when the non custodial parent agrees to relinquish their parental rights or a parent is found guilty of abuse and/or neglect and/or endangerment.

Miranda mum is called sara jeen and her dad is called jimmy cosjrove

This usually happens preparatory to an adoption or after a finding that the parent in question is unfit. In any case, giving up parental rights doesn't exempt one from child support.

I don't believe she can move out of state. (My buddy had to deal with this recently - painful!!) However, I suggest you contact a lawyer. Good luck. She has the right to live anywhere and, with agreement of the court, assuming she has custody, can take the children with her.

it depends ifyou currently have custody of your grandchildren already. if you do then you must go through an adoptiion. otherwise most states wont grant fulll custody. grandparents used to have what they call grandparents rights but many grandparents abused that right so now a child must go through foster care and the courts.

The term step parent originated from when a person would step in to help after an original parent died. It was most often used for stepmothers but soon after stepfather became just as common.
