Want this question answered?
the father gets the custody of the child if the mother dies
During the divorce proceedings, the wife got custody of the children but the husband still has visitation rights on weekends.
Only if specified in the order.
only with court approval
I doubt they can TAKE custody. You might want to consider sharing custody until you are out of college and on your feet. Don't worry about your parents. They got you this far, didn't they?
You may be able to petition the court to modify your custody order which includes a request for child support going forward.
The Axel Freeman order is a custody and visitation schedule and is used when a child is young and the non custodial parent is busy with work and not involved in the day to day care. An example would be alternating custody on weekends and one night a week with the non custodial parent.
not if you are the biological parent
If you gave up custody, you would need to file a petition with the court to modify custody. However, you must show that a change in custody would be in the best interest of the child as well as other factors.
No Because when you give up custody you cant get it back Trust me my moms a lawyer and she gone through a custody battle before So i know what im talkin about
Joint legal custody indicates that both parents have the right to make joint decisions on the raising of a child (education, health care, etc.). If there are conflicts in such decisions then it is only applicable if such disagreements are reasonable in the eyes of the court. If they are deemed "unreasonable" then the parent with primary physical custody or the court makes such determinations. Partial physical custody, indicates that the child spends a portion of his or her time (specified or otherwise) with the parent (weekends, holidays, summer vacation, etc.) but resides the majority of time with the primary custodial parent.
There is no automatic answer. I presume you are concerned about when holidays fall on weekends, and your ex is concerned that she only gets holidays when they do fall on weekends (so, never Thanksgiving).i suggest that you find and read the document that gave you primary custody, such as a court order, divorce decree or custody agreement. If the document does not clarify holiday rights, the two of you should agree informally, perhaps a year at a time. If you cannot agree, hire a divorce mediator. If you still can't agree, hire attorneys and go back to court.It is, obviously, cheaper and less disruptive to the family relationships if you can agree.
