If you feel your child is in danger than I would say yes but if you feel he is a sociopath than maybe you might want to consider consulting your question towards a professional who could tell you the safest way of going about dealing with a sociopath.
The sociopath remarries because he/she don't know any better and are sometimes lonely
The parents have assumed joint custody.
You divorce and get custody over your kids or just get full custody!
no
Go to Family Court requesting protection. If he has custody, you should petition the courts to have it taken away from him, and request that any visits with him and the children be supervised. If he is doing it without legal access, get a restraining order.
He/she can't. Only the parents can change custody.
You have the visitation rights that were established in the divorce, and you have no custody rights.
Custody rulings have nothing to do with who files for the divorce first.
Priscilla did.
YES, IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A DIVORCE, YOU NEED TO ASK FOR CUSTODY AS PART OF THE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT. THIS WOULD BE THE BEST TIME TO DO IT BECAUSE IF SOCIAL SERVICES ALREADY TOOK THE CHILDREN FROM THE MOTHER , THE JUDGE WOULD EASILY GRANT YOU CUSTODY THE CHILDREN.
That should be expressed in the custody orders.
In a divorce, the other spouse has to be notified of the motion for divorce, and they also have to be notified of your intention to sue for custody fo the children. So, no, it's not possible to be granted a divorce or custody of the children without the other spouse being notifiied of the intent.
