Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
remarriage
My husband and I recently got married. He has a child with another woman who is, surprise, never cooperative. She has sole custody by default. Am I allowed to watch the child and/or pick up the child if my husband is not able to do so on his visitation times or does she have to ok this? If she does, is it a reasonable request to bring up when we go back to court?

If the mother does not agree to you picking the child up, you will need the court's help (i.e. an order). As to watching the child, no problem.

Depends on what the divorce decree says regarding visitation.
She has custody so she has control
