Re: temporary child custody
Is it possible? Sure. The issue is how to convince the judge that it is in the best interest of the child. You would need to explain how a change in custody would resolve the truancy issue.
Even before getting to that point, the aunt has to have a way to even propose the idea. If the parent is in agreement, then they can just request this. If not in agreement, the aunt has no standing to even be in court but she can contact the prosecuting attorney and offer her services and hope they are receptive to the idea.
