Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
My daughter has 2 children by an ex-boyfriend. His name is not on the children's birth certificate. He is now saying that when he gets out of prison in a few months he is going to take the children. Can he legally do that?

No. What he CAN do is file a petition for paternity, and ask the Court to make a finding that he is the children's father. In connection with that, he CAN ask for custody. The chances that he would GET custody are probably zero.
My reply is somewhat different from Mark's.
He can try. It does not mean that he will success.
