Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Re: Husband's Ex Seeking Full Custody

Generally, a person can indicate who they want to be the guardian of a minot child in the event of death. However it is not binding on the court and certainly can be challenged. As the natural parent of the child your husband would be the natural person to be the guardian or awarded custody of the child in the event of death of the mother. It is unlikely that the other persons would be awarded guardianship or control over the child instead of your husband. However if there are other factors or information about your husband that would create a danger to or not be in the best interest of the child as regards your husband the court could decide otherwise.
