if its taken to court and the mother has a clean record she will most likely get custody of the child and if the father does not pay child support he has no rights at all..(im going though this same thing in court) about the only way he can is if he proves that the mother is unfit
The father's felony conviction will most likely come up during the custody case. However, the courts will look at evidence of the circumstance surrounding the conviction, and also whether the father has changed, and is rehabilitated.
If she lives with you it sure could, especially if the child's father is fighting her for custody of the child. He will use your criminal background as evidence of the child being around a "bad influence."
As opposed to a violent mother? If he's cleaned up his act, yes.
It depends on the felony conviction. Especially if the felon is child predator.
You don't necessarily have a lesser chance of gaining custody of a child if you have a felony on your record. It depends on the circumstances of the felony and on the history, criminal and other, of the parent applying for custody. One thing you can do is you can try to get your criminal record expunged, and that way you will have better chances of winning custody. Anyone eligible for expungement should do this, since it will significantly improve their chances of getting a job or a student loan, as well as improving their opportunities in other areas. Good luck!
It is possible that the other parent could petition the court to have your custody or visitation limited or revoked as being a bad influence on the child. What the court's ruling might be, no one can tell.
No. Felony offenses require a summary arrest (i.e.: taking you into custody).
What is a nonviolent felon? Are you asking, Is it all right to date a felon as long as he only shows my kids how to steal? Or is the father saying he doesn't approve of your boyfriend and the only thing he has against him is a felony conviction? The father won't get far unless he has more than merely a felony conviction.
It is possible
If the father is on probation or the son? If the father is on probation, it's possible depending on the circumstances (nature of the crime, conditions of probation, ie, is the parent able to properly care for the child with probation restrictions taken into consideration, etc.). The mother's or legal guardian's cooperation would also be required. Ultimately, the court would decide what is in the best interests of the child in determining custody and probation as a factor is decided on a case-by-case basis.
You can be arrested by a law enforcement officer taking you into custody, bringing you in, then you get formally charged. Any felony is serious.
Since a lot of mothers have no idea who it is, how can it be a felony?
