Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
custody
My daughter is in jail, not sentenced, she has custody of her son and has left him the care of his stepfather. He is visiting his father for the summer visitation and the father has found out she is in jail. Can he get custody at this point. Doe she have to return the child to his home when the visit is over? What can a grandmother do?
