My husband has had full custody of his daughter for over a year, his ex signed over custody of her own will and said such to the judge. ie: she was not bribed, intimidated or coerced. His ex now says she WAS intimidated and coerced and changed her mind, says she made a mistake and wants full custody now. We have offered her additional visitation time and tried to work out a compromise but she says she ONLY will take full custody. She says that since we are having a baby of our own she wants her daughter back because she is lonely and miserable. My husband is a great man, and has been a fantastic father, she has nothing but unprovable lies to say about him. SInce there is nothing wrong about the current custody arrangements other than his ex keeps changing his mind, I don't think the judge will or should change anything. We have a great lawyer, but she has a lawyer that seems to not be bothered that she is constantly lying. Anyone have any input?

I don't think the judge will give her custody. The judge is interested in what is in the best interest for the child. Being in a stable family, with another sibling is in the best interest for the child. Have you ever heard that if their is a couple fighting for full custody of the child and one of them is married and the other one isn't the child is most likely to go to the married parent because they are providing a stable environment for that child. One with a mother and father.
Most likely you have nothing to worry about. Just because you are having another child doesn't mean that they are automatically going to give his daughter back to his mother.

you are SO right she should only get visitation rights not full custody argue with the judge about how many years the child has been with you guys

She will have a very hard time taking the daughter from the father after she willingly gave her up to him. She will have to prove that he is unfit to take care of his daughter. I wouldn't be too concerned over it.

She is going to have a hard time overcoming her previous testimony.
