Re: Child Custody and parent with multipal personality disorder
It can happen, but probably not if the judge knows about the condition. I can't imagine that a person who is uncontrollably violent could retain custody of the children. But your case needs many, many more facts and probably a doctors report. This isn't a matter of law, but a matter of the facts of her condition and the alternative placements for the children. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
