Legal Question in Family Law in Kansas
Out of State half-brother's custody rights?
I have 2 half brother's living in Kansas with their biological mother. My father, (and theirs) passed away in September. She is choosing to live a damaging lifestyle that may include some illegal actvity and I believe there will come a time I may need to step in and take my brother's and gain custody to ensure they live a normal, happy, productive life and are cared for properly. Do I have any rights whatsoever?

Re: Out of State half-brother's custody rights?
Should the Dept of SRS find that the children are not being given proper care by mom, it's possbile the court would place the boys in SRS custody w/out of home placement. It is at that time, SRS and the Court must consider other family members for residential placement of the children. Anyone can file a Petition if there is a concern for welfare of children.
