Re: Custody
When you say illegal, I'm going to guess you mean illegal alien. I'm not sure either that custody has been granted through a court. Custody is a legal term resulting from a court order. Possession is to simply have the child with the "illegal". An illegal alien could be granted custody by the court if it was in the child's best interest. If the illegal was deported, the child could go with him/her.
