Re: Parent Arrested
You can seek sole custody of your child now, as the mother now has a blot on her record.
If she goes to jail, you are the next person who could seek custody, being the biological father. The grandparents are next in line after you.
The court will give you preference, however they also consider the best interests of the child.
