His conviction has noting to do with children.

I certainly hope so. BTW - There are no "ex" felons, there are only felons and non-felons.

Oh, You're just bringing her up to be a proper little lady aren't you? Ex-felon boyfriend indeed. You should be ashamed.
Well, the answer is probably not. He'd have to file for a TRO in the interest of the child. In the absense of violence or other abusive behavior against the kid, such an order would very likely violate your "rights" and be void. However, he could perhaps use your poor associations to gain custody outright. Were I him, that's exactly what I would be thinking:
Hmmm. Ex-husband... Ex-felon (in other words, a felon) boyfriend... child put through a divorce, being raised by a single mother without a father in the house, and now exposed to the company of said felon...
I wonder what other miserable choices are disgracing your life.
Were I the father, I don't think I'd be satisfied with a restraining order anyway. I'd be trying to change the custody order instead. It sounds as if you have no business raising children.

Yes, and he should! Not only that, but he can very easily win full custody of the children away from you! He has the right to keep his children away from a criminal -- especially a FELON! There is no such thing as an EX-Felon. He is a Felon still -- even if he has served his time. You made the choice to date a felon, and in the eyes of the court, you are choosing the felon over your own children's safety (or their ability to be influenced by him), and therefore your wx has every right to get full custody, and then you will be paying child support to him!
Sorry to be blunt, but children ALWAYS come first!

Sure I don't see why not, everything is supposed to be in the best interest of the children, I'm sure you would do the same if the shoe was on the other foot. Both parents have a right and a responsibility to protect their children. If your ex does this then it shows he really cares and is concerned about his children, which is a good thing. I'm surprised that you would even consider letting an ex boyfriend (felon) be around your children when your not even together with him.

Once the the divorce is finalized he can't do anything about you having a boyfriend. He will probably make your life hell and try to get the full custody by claiming your new boyfriend is (fill in the blank with something bad). So just be careful with what he finds out.

He can file a Motion, which is asking the Court. The Court may or may not grant the Motion. It's the Court that makes the Orders, not you or your ex.

He can file anything he wants. It is up to the courts to decide whether or not it has merit and what action will or will not be taken.
Again, I agree with the other answer, why do you want to expose your child to an ex-con? If you are choosing you 'happiness and sexual fullfillment' over the welfare of your child....then more power to the ex-husband.

As I said in my OTHER answer, the COURT is the one to file the order on petition or motion.
And it doesn't matter if his conviction has anything to do with children. As long as the court considers him a danger to the child they CAN issue such an order.
And if you violate it, as I said in my OTHER post, you can give your ex grounds to seek and win custody.

Possibly if he has a violent felony like assult, domestic violence, murder and some drug related convictions. If his conviction is for theft or fraud it is highly unlikely. Your ex would have to prove that it is dangerous for your boyfriend to be around the child.

If he can prove that your BF is a danger to his child, which is more likely the case being your BF is a convicted felon, then yes, it is possible and you could lose custody of your child.
