Legal Question in Family Law in California

a child not our own

my husband has been taking care of a child, now 17, that is not legally his , the mother of this child left him with my husband after leaving the marriage. my husband is still currently taking care of this child ,but the child has been in trouble with the law for a number of years and has accumulated a financial trail and now on top of all of that we are about to be sued.

the mother of this child does not want anything to do with him , my husband took him to his mothers residence but she put him out after about 2 to 3 days

of being with her. he is back with us.

what can we do? can we put him out?
