Re: parental rights
Your question is too complicated for a quick answer. The family member may be able to obtain a custody order under certain circumstances. I am uncomfortable advising the father or family member not to obtain a new custody order under these circumstances without knowing much more about the mother's custodial rights and parenting practices.
