He needs to hire an attorney to protect his interests and who can appear in court on the date of the hearing and ask for an extension.
Since daddy is in drug rehab, mommy has every reason to ask for protection for their small child. The judge is very likely to grant it even if daddy is present since daddy has done drugs within the past 2 years.
