Here is what is going on:
My sister and her ex husband lived in North Carolina. He decided that he wasnt happy and didnt want to be married to my sister. Their child was 2 months old when this happened. She stayed down in NC for a month longer and decided she needed to be around her family for support and to help with the baby back in Pennsylvania. While down there that last month her ex-hub only visited twice. My sister had him sign a paper stating that it was alright for her to bring the baby to PA until the courts decided custody. He agreed to sign it. My sister has been living in PA for 7 months now and he has been up to visit the baby 2ce. One time for a day and a half and the other time for the weekend. They had their custody hearing yesterday.
What usually happens when parents live in two different states? In this case mother and baby in PA father in NC.
The baby is now 9 months old.

The mom will get custody and the dad will get some kind of visitation like one weekend a month and half of vacations, if he even asks for that. It doesn't sound like he's interested. But she won't have to move back to NC or anything like that. She'll just have to help make visitations happen if that's what Dad wants.

she would be in a position to continually attempt to get custody of the youngster. no rely if she would be in a position to win or no longer is a distinctive tale. it additionally depens on the age of your baby, the courtroom will now and lower back ask the youngster the place they want to stay, yet that would not continually imply the choose will hear. in case you have finished custody and have for sometime now i wouldnt trouble. particularly because of the fact that she has no longer shown up for any courtroom dates the choose will see she isn't very fascinated. I have not have been given any theory how secure you're by way of your state because of the fact all states variety. as long as you seem on your courtroom dates and you're speaking stable care of your baby the choose will see that. stable success!

It depends on where the hearing is. Depends on that jurisdiction.
However, my suggestion is to make the agreement as civil as possible. It's not worth the time nor money nor the sake of the child to get into a bitter dispute....
The child ends up getting hurt in all of it... child will grow up having to deal with the animosity...and it ends up placing great strain on that child's future relationships (including that with the parents). I've seen it first hand to many children and my friends.

The court will determine as to whom the child will be designated for custody whether for the mother or father. It will be determined as to the best development of the child.

unless he can prove here unfit as a parent,she will custody. as far as visitations,they will probably have to split transportation costs. meet halfway or one travels to drop off/pick up and the other returns/picks up the child.

either they will have to have joint custody where the child will Live with each of them an equal amount of time.or hopefully the father will do the right thing and give her to the mother.
GOOD LUCK !

it all depends on how much the father wants to be with the baby and how well their relationship is now
