What is a custodial parent?

A custodial parent is a parent who has the child living with him or her. He or she is given the responsibility to have the primary care, custody, and responsibility for the child. He is the parent to whom the courts have approved of to provide for and care for the child. 

Generally, there is only one custodial parent that has the physical custody of the child, it is often parenting time as well the legal custody that is shared by both parents. 

Is the division always fair?

Even if you are granted equal custody, the division of the custody is not always fair. There are different kinds of custody arrangements and it is the court that must decide on what type of custody will be ordered.

You need to make sure that you can at least get the best kind of custody time and the one that fits your required time for your children. This is where our team of experts at Haque Legal can help you out. 

You can have the best kind of experience with what we can offer you and we always make sure that you will have the fairest division of time to spend with your children. 

Who is the non-custodial parent?

By definition, the non-custodial parent is the parent who does not have the child living with him or her most of the time.

What is parenting time?

Parenting time is the time the non-custodial parent spends with the child.

What if the schedule of the parenting time is not followed by the ex-spouse?

If the parenting time is not followed by your ex-spouse, you should contact us and provide the best kind of information you can. We will contact the friend of the court and request that the enforcement of your parenting time order be addressed by the court or we will file a motion and ask the court to enforce the parenting time order.

What can the court do if the schedule of the parenting time is not followed by the ex-spouse?

After filing the motion, either by you, your lawyer, or by the friend of the Court, possible enforcement actions would be to make up parenting time, a civil hearing for contempt of your ex-spouse, as well as the modification of the existing parenting time and the custody provisions that may need revisiting.

What if it is the other parent that refuses to see the child?

While custody and parenting time may be granted, the court or the friend of the court cannot force the parent to see his or her child. It is only the parent that must show that he or she wants to see the child.

What if the other parent refuses to return the child?

If your ex-spouse or the other parent refuses to return the child, you may contact the police or the prosecuting attorney. You may file a parental kidnapping charge. This will be discussed in another article.
